Comments: A coral-reef species that is usually seen hovering a short distance above the substratum in lagoons and seaward reefs. Usually solitary, but sometimes seen in a small group, where each individual is at moderate distance from the others. From the food items found in the gut of one specimen of <i>Koumansetta hectori</i> (filamentous algae, harpacticoid copepods, amphipods, ostracods, and nematodes) a similar benthic, omnivorous diet may be expected for this species (Ref. 119548).
