Clés d'identification | Morphologie | Morphométrie
Épines dorsales (Total) : 0; Rayons mous dorsaux (Total) : 13 - 15; Épines anales: 0; Rayons mous anaux: 12 - 14. Distinguished by its long spatulate snout and slender shape; reddish or brown with a pair of yellow stripes on upper half of the head and body.
Lives in close association with long-spined sea urchins or branching corals of sheltered reefs (Ref. 9710). Juvenile fish eat pedicellariae and sphaeridia of the host Diadema and commensal copepods; adult fish eat burrowing bivalves in corals as well as tube feet of their host and eggs of a commercial shrimp (Ref. 33619).
