Short description
Κλείδες προσδιορισμού | Μορφολογία | Μορφομετρία
Ραχιαίες άκανθες (συνολικά) : 83 - 84; Μαλακές ραχιαίες ακτίνες (συνολικά) : 0; Εδρικές άκανθες: 1; Μαλακές εδρικές ακτίνες: 32 - 38. Caudal rounded. Pectorals small.
Facultative air-breathing (Ref. 126274); Intertidal (Ref. 31184), commonly found in rockweed (Fucus) masses, in tide pools and inshore areas. May remain out of water under rocks or seaweed (Ref. 31184). Feeds on small crustaceans and mollusks. Breathes air (Ref. 31184) and can stay out of water for 5-20 hours if kept moist (Ref. 51276).
