Chaves de identificação | Morfologia | Morfometria
Espinhos dorsais (total) : 0; Raios dorsais (total) : 18 - 26; Raios anais : 4. Dark brown with parallel of small black spots in series along trunk, and some white speckles (Ref. 48635).
Body shape (shape guide): eel-like; Cross section: angular.
Occur on the continental shelf (Ref. 75154). Found in tide pool, seagrass, and coral reef areas. Ovoviviparous (Ref. 205). The males carry the eggs in a brood pouch which is found under the tail (Ref. 205). Males may be brooding at 3.5-4.0 cm SL (Ref. 5316). Also found in lagoons and seaward reefs (Ref 90102).
