Οικολογία
Θαλασσινό(ά) Υφαλόφιλο(α); εύρος βάθους 3 - 40 m (Ref. 48636), usually 5 - 30 m (Ref. 27115). Tropical; 24°C - 28°C (Ref. 27115)

Μέγεθος / Βάρος / Age
Maturity: Lm ?  range ? - ? cm
Max length : 24.0 cm TL αρσενικό/απροσδιόριστο; (Ref. 9710)
Ραχιαίες άκανθες (συνολικά) : 9; Μαλακές ραχιαίες ακτίνες (συνολικά) : 10; Εδρικές άκανθες: 3; Μαλακές εδρικές ακτίνες: 8. The cheek lacks the multiple lines below the eye and dorsal fin has two thin, usually irregular, red marginal lines (Ref. 48636). The concave head profile of this species is similar to that of C. oxycephalus, but its coloration is distinctive.
Inhabits coral-rich areas of protected reefs (Ref. 9710), with a rich mix of soft and brittle hard corals and other invertebrates (Ref. 48636). Reported to be associated with the mushroom Heliofungia actiniformis (Ref. 91291). Oviparous, distinct pairing during breeding (Ref. 205).
