Descrição breve
Chaves de identificação | Morfologia | Morfometria
Espinhos dorsais (total) : 10; Raios dorsais moles (total) : 11; Espinhos anais: 3; Raios anais moles: 6. White interspaces between first four dark bars bisected by narrow yellowish brown bars.
Moderately common in rocky areas and among rubble, often in crevices and shallow caves. Usually lies at rest on the substrate (Ref. 9626). Feeds primarily on small crustaceans, particularly copepods, shrimps and shrimp larvae, crabs and crab larvae as well as polychaetes (Ref. 7510).
