      Diagnostic Keys
      Longitudinal rows of scales above lateral line parallel to it anteriorly, but sometimes appearing to rise obliquely somewhat below posterior part of spinous or soft dorsal fin. Scales on head beginning behind eyes, temporal region naked or nearly so. All longitudinal rows of scales below lateral line appear to rise obliquely to dorsal profile, sometimes horizontal anteriorly. Vomerine teeth in a triangular shaped patch without posterior prolongation, or in a inverted V or crescentric shaped patch. Preopercular notch shallow. Dorsal fin with 15 soft rays; a chalk-white blotch in lateral line above anterior part of soft dorsal fin, preceded by a dark brown blotch. - (From Talwar and Kacker, 1984).

                        General Habitat
                        These tropical fish are occasionally encountered on coral reefs or shallow inshore flats. Also occurs in deeper water to a depth range of about 50-100 m. Found solitarily or in small groups of up to 15 to 20 fish. Adults on deep coastal slopes; juveniles on shallow algae-reef flats, often near freshwater run-offs.
