Short description
Bestämningsnycklar | Morfologi | Morfometri
Taggstrålar i ryggfenan (totalt) : 13; Mjukstrålar i ryggfenan (totalt) : 12 - 14; Taggstrålar i analfenan: 2; Mjukstrålar i analfenan: 12 - 13. Caudal fin slightly forked with rounded lobes.
Body shape (shape guide): short and / or deep.
Adults are found in exposed rocky shores, common in tide pools (Ref. 7247). Oviparous, distinct pairing during breeding (Ref. 205). Eggs are demersal and adhere to the substrate (Ref. 205). Males guard and aerate the eggs (Ref. 205).
