Tamanho / Peso / Idade
Maturity: Lm ? range ? - ? cm
Max length : 31.0 cm TL macho/indeterminado; (Ref. 2850)
Inhabits sand, mud and rock bottoms of shallow waters near the coast (Ref. 9322). Often occurs in small schools but may also be solitary. Feeds by digging in the sand with its barbels. Rests on the bottom at night, dramatically changing both color and daytime pattern to reddish blotches (Ref. 5227). Young are pelagic.
