Clés d'identification | Morphologie | Morphométrie
Épines dorsales (Total) : 9; Rayons mous dorsaux (Total) : 11; Épines anales: 3; Rayons mous anaux: 9; Vertèbres: 25. In males, color is generally orange (yellow- or red-orange); lower fourth of head and body pale yellow; 2-4 dorsal soft rays prolonged (every other ray beginning with first). Males larger and more colorful than females; color of males intensify during courtship. Female specimens light red, pale white ventrally. Median predorsal scales 4-6 (Ref. 2139). Penultimate dorsal soft ray of males 1.8-2.2 in HL; two short dark stripes beneath pectoral fin (Ref. 41634).
Found on bases of steep outer reef slopes, above coral or rubble (Ref. 9710). Forms schools. Maximum depth reported from Ref. 27115.
