    Biology


    Little is known about the ecology for this species, however, juveniles seem to mimic and usually swim together with schools of Thalassoma noronhanum which they resemble in color. Specimens were observed over high rugosity rocky bottoms with calcareous algae at depths (Ref. 83981).
