Description
It prefers coral-rich lagoons and outer reefs, where it is in shallow water down to 15 meters. Young fish live alone and stay between branched stone corals. Adult fish live in pairs or in small groups, individual animals join Meyer's butterfly fish (Chaetodon meyeri), which has a similar body drawing. The orange stripe butterflyfish is distinctive due to its orange stripes on the sides.
