This species is characterized by the following colouration: body and fins are brown to orange-red with numerous small dark-edged blue spots (smallest on fins, present only basally on pectoral fins); ca. 30-50 spots behind and below centre of eye to edge of preopercle; there are some spots on sides of body of adults vertically elongate, and some on head obliquely elongate; the spots are usually absent or few on underside of thorax and abdomen; body usually with seven dark bars subequal to pale interspaces; pectoral-fin rays with dark brown, abruptly pale distally; eyes are narrowly rimmed in blue (may be interrupted); caudal-fin margin sometimes narrowly whitish (Ref. 127962).
Body shape (shape guide): fusiform / normal; Cross section: compressed.
Occurs on or near coral reefs and outer-reef slopes, sometimes in lagoons or over seagrass and
sandy areas, to at least 85 m depth. It feeds on other fishes. It is a popular food fish on
