Hamlets are small and bright colored. Shy hamlets have a yellow head with a brown-black body. However, the extent of the two-color potions can vary, and they are divided by a diagonal line extending from the nape posteriorly and ventrally to the anal fin. The face and all the fins are yellow. On the head it has a bright blue streak around the eye and on the snout. They can grow up to a maximum size of 13 cm (5 in) in length. The shy hamlet inhabits the tropical Caribbean seas. The fish is primarily pelagic and can be found on inshore areas in low depths (3-30 m) in temperatures of about 22-27 °C (72-80 °F). They are coral reef fishes that vary in their distribution but tend to be highly sympatric, with up to nine species found on a single reef.
