Size / Weight / Age Maturity: L m   ?   range ? - ? cm Max length : 20.0 cm TL male/unsexed; (Ref. 30573 ) Short description Morphology | Morphometrics Dorsal spines (total): 9; Dorsal soft rays (total): 11; Anal spines : 3; Anal soft rays : 11. The initial phase is olivaceous to brownish yellow dorsally, white ventrally, with a black zigzag stripe running from eye to upper caudal peduncle (continuing anteriorly as a yellow stripe from the eye to the snout). This primary phase is similar to H. trimaculatus except for the black zigzag stripe along its back (Ref. 1602 ). The terminal phase is green, the zigzag stripe lavender-pink with its anterior portion overlaid by a black blotch. Biology     Glossary (e.g. epibenthic) Common in shallow lagoons or bays; usually over sand, rubble, or seagrass bottom (Ref. 41878 ), rather than on coral reefs. May be found in groups (Ref. 90102 ). Usually solitary and aggressive towards members of its own species. Feeds on small crustaceans by picking them off the sandy bottom (Ref. 5503 ). Life cycle and mating behavior Maturity | Reproduction | Spawning | Eggs | Fecundity | Larvae Distinct pairing during breeding (Ref. 205 ). Pelagic spawner (Ref. 32193 ).
