Short description
Claves de identificación | Morfología | Morfometría
Espinas dorsales (total) : 13; Radios blandos dorsales (total) : 17 - 19; Espinas anales: 2; Radios blandos anales: 18 - 19. Nasal cirrus simple and supraorbital cirrus long, a little pinnate. Nuchal cirrus absent. Occipital crest in male, none in female. Some oblique lines distinct on cheek.
Facultative air-breathing (Ref. 126274); Adults inhabit surge, rocky shore areas. Grow to less than 14 cm TL. Oviparous. Eggs are demersal and adhesive (Ref. 205), and are attached to the substrate via a filamentous, adhesive pad or pedestal (Ref. 94114). Larvae are planktonic, often found in shallow, coastal waters (Ref. 94114).
