Body pale olive-grey, darker above, belly pale blue; bluish violet band joining eyes across front of snout; lips and cheeks blue; upper 1/3 of pectoral fins bluish white, remainder pale yellow (Ref. 5591).

Body shape (shape guide): fusiform / normal.
Adults inhabit sandy areas at bases of reefs (Ref. 9710). They are considered as rare species that school above huge mounds of rubble that they apparently build (up to 5.5 m long x 3 m wide over 1 m high). Solitary or in pairs (Ref. 90102).
