生态学
海洋 居于水底的; 深度上下限 5 - 10 m (Ref. 10815). 亞熱帶的; 37°N - 8°N, 98°W - 60°W
Western Atlantic: Bermuda, North Carolina (USA), and northern Gulf of Mexico to the Cayman Islands. Eastern Atlantic: only known from two specimens (one extant) from Joal, Senegal (Ref. 10815, 81289). This species’ appearance in brackish waters of West Africa is likely to be very rare, but cannot be discounted (Ref. 81289).
西大西洋: 百慕達群島，北卡羅萊那州 (美國) 與墨西哥灣北部到開曼群島。 東大西洋: 從 Joal ，塞內加爾知道 (一現生的) 的只有二件標本.(參考文獻 10815)

简单描述
检索表 | 型态特徵 | 形态测量图
背棘 (总数) : 19 - 23. Diagnosis: 62-80 (usually 66-75) total dorsal fin rays, including 19-23 spines; 36-52 (usually 40-47) total anal fin rays; anal fin usually originating between verticals from dorsal fin elements 25-31; caudal fin rounded (Ref. 81289).
Coloration: (based on description of juvenile pigmentation, by Smith&Thacker 2000): body tan, with melanophores scattered over flanks and dorsum, forming a stripe on dorsum and a thinner stripe on flanks; mottled pigmentation on head (Ref. 81289).
Known from muddy littoral and estuarine habitats (Ref. 81289). Burrows in shallow muddy and sandy bottoms (Ref. 7251). Postlarvae and early juveniles (to ca 2-2.5 cm SL) may occur in surface plankton to distances of 15 km or more offshore; subadults and adults occasionally found swimming near the surface at night (Ref. 10815).
穴居在水浅的泥地与沙地底部中。 (参考文献 7251) 后期幼体与早期的稚鱼 (对 ca 2-2.5 公分 SL) 可能公里或更多外海出现在表面的浮游生物到距离 15 。 亚成鱼与成鱼偶然地发现游近表面在晚上。 (参考文献 10815)
