Size / Gewicht / Alter
Geschlechtsreife: Lm ? range ? - ? cm
Max length : 10.0 cm TL Männchen/unbestimmt; (Ref. 9710)
Rückenflossenstacheln (insgesamt) : 13; Rückenflossenweichstrahlen (insgesamt) : 8; Afterflossenstacheln: 3; Afterflossenweichstrahlen: 6. Recognized by the large rounded head and deeply incised membranes of the spinous part of the dorsal fin (Ref. 48635).
Body shape (shape guide): short and / or deep.
Inhabits silty coastal reefs (Ref. 9710); also in sheltered sand habitats in coastal bays and deep offshore. Uncommon and mainly known from prawn trawling grounds. Nocturnal, coming out on dusk, usually buries itself in the sand during the day (Ref. 48635).
