Etymology: Ophioblennius: Greek, ophis = serpent + Greek, blennios = mucus (Ref. 45335).
Eponymy: Dr Charles Freeman Williams McClure (1865–1955) was an American anatomist and embryologist. [...] (Ref. 128868), visit book page.

Ökologie
seewasser riff-verbunden. Tropical

Size / Gewicht / Alter
Maturity: Lm ? range ? - ? cm
Max length : 12.2 cm TL Männchen/unbestimmt; (Ref. 26340)
Rückenflossenstacheln (insgesamt) : 12; Rückenflossenweichstrahlen (insgesamt) : 19 - 21; Afterflossenstacheln: 2; Afterflossenweichstrahlen: 20 - 21; Wirbelzahl: 33. Lateral line consists of 2 disconnected, elongate portions where the anterior portion overlaps with the anterior end of the ventral portion (Ref. 43469).
Adults inhabit shallow, clear waters with coral or rock bottoms (Ref. 5521). Territorial (Ref. 9710). Oviparous. Eggs are demersal and adhesive (Ref. 205), and are attached to the substrate via a filamentous, adhesive pad or pedestal (Ref. 94114). Larvae are planktonic, often found in shallow, coastal waters (Ref. 94114).
