Tamanho / Peso / Idade
Maturity: Lm ?  range ? - ? cm
Max length : 60.0 cm TL macho/indeterminado; (Ref. 3145); idade máx. registrada: 45 anos (Ref. 52229)
Espinhos dorsais (total) : 6; Raios dorsais (total) : 26 - 27; Espinhos anais: 3; Raios anais : 27 - 29. Adults develop a convexly rounded prominent snout and unusually tall dorsal and anal fins. Side of body with vertical blue lines which break up into small blue spots dorsally and ventrally. A broad blue band extending from eye to front of rostral protuberance (Ref 9808).
Occurs in deep lagoon and seaward reefs. Found forming loose schools along upper regions of deep drop-offs (Ref. 48637). Forms mid-water aggregations off steep slopes during the day to feed on zooplankton. Usually found alone or in pairs. Omnivorous. Has the ability to show or hide its blue markings (Ref. 9710). Minimum depth reported taken from Ref. 27115.
