Dorsale stekels (totaal) : 10; Dorsale zachte stralen (totaal) : 15; Anale stekels: 3; Anale zachte stralen: 7. This species is distinguished from its congeners by the its coloration pattern: pale yellow body with a black vertical bar going from the dorsal edge of the head to the edge of the ventral preopercle; triangular black spot at the preopercle and another one that runs along the caudal peduncle; head with iridescent blue vertical lines bordering the eyespot, the contour of the eye socket and the triangular spot; anal, caudal and pelvic fins are bright yellow; pectoral fins are very faint yellow; dorsal fin is pale yellow with oblique positioned blue stripes (Ref. 90371).
Body shape (shape guide): short and / or deep.
The conservation threats to this are related to climate-associated changes as well as coral-reef degradation and pollution due to the close proximity of their habitat to well-populated coastal areas (Ref. 137920).
