Dorsale stekels (totaal) : 0; Dorsale zachte stralen (totaal) : 6 - 8; Anale stekels: 0; Anale zachte stralen: 6 - 8. First 1 or 2 rays of dorsal fin embedded; caudal roundish, narrow; pelvic fins united anteriorly by wrinkled membrane to form the anterior portion of small adhesive disc which is completed posteriorly by a broad fold of skin from the ventral surface of body, the anterior and posterior segments of the disc separated by lateral clefts (Ref. 6885). Color light olive green to brown; females sometimes sparsely covered with distinct brownish red spots about the size of the pupil of the eye (Ref. 6885).
Clings to strands of kelp (often high in kelp canopy) or eelgrass with its disk; moves to seek food or cover. Rarely found in tide pools.
