Environment: milieu / climate zone / depth range / distribution range
Ecologia
marinhas associadas(os) a recifes; intervalo de profundidade 0 - 20 m (Ref. 9710), usually 2 - 20 m (Ref. 27115). Tropical; 24°C - 28°C (Ref. 27115); 31°N - 14°S, 34°E - 81°E (Ref. 57256)

Tamanho / Peso / Idade
Maturity: Lm ?  range ? - ? cm
Max length : 36.7 cm TL macho/indeterminado; (Ref. 97602); common length : 10.0 cm TL macho/indeterminado; (Ref. 5450)
Often found in groups in coral-rich areas (Ref. 9710) or on rocky bottoms (Ref. 30573). It small and numerous pharyngeal teeth suggest a diet that consists mainly of filamentous algae (Ref. 33204). Occasionally caught by traps and trawls (Ref. 68964).
