Dorsale stekels (totaal) : 5; Dorsale zachte stralen (totaal) : 17 - 22; Anale stekels: 0; Anale zachte stralen: 17 - 22; Wervels: 32 - 33. Color variable (from brown to pink or yellow) with small black and white spots; 2 elongate black spots between first 3 dorsal spines (Ref. 4263). Total body plates 27-35. Caudal fin truncate, rounded, or lanceolate. Caudal peduncle short or lost in large females (Ref. 48635). Pelvic fin sexually dimorphic, forming a brood pouch in females (Ref. 9829).
Body shape (shape guide): other; Cross section: flattened.
This uncommon species is found in coastal reefs and weedy areas (Ref. 5463) or lagoon reefs, often on algal flats or seagrass beds (Ref 90102). Females carry the eggs in their pelvic fins that are modified to form a brood pouch (Ref. 205). Adults feed on small crustaceans (Ref. 1602). Monogamous and always in home-ranging pairs, that is they do not defend an exclusive territory (Ref. 52884).
