This is the longest bodied of all the wrasse found in Hawaii, its color changes over time, from a yellowish, brown, green or even whitish with a distinct yellow blotch on the side. For some reason this wrasse in the picture was attatched at the hip with the goatfish, they swam together the whole time I was chasing them trying to get a good shot. I have only seen this wrasse in rubble and rocks near the shore. Pali, Maui.
