Écologie
marin démersal; non migrateur (Ref. 43439); profondeur 0 - 24 m (Ref. 51666), usually 0 - 1 m (Ref. 43439). Subtropical; 46°N - 27°N, 126°W - 113°W

Length at first maturity / Taille / Poids / Âge
Maturity: Lm 40.6, range 36 - 45.72 cm
Max length : 76.0 cm TL mâle / non sexé; (Ref. 2850); âge max. reporté: 18 années (Ref. 43439)
Common inshore, in tide pools or shallow rocky areas, from the intertidal zone to 24 m depth. May remain out of water under rocks or seaweed (Ref. 31184). Feeds mainly on crustaceans and algae. Breathes air (Ref. 31184) and can remain out of water for 15-35 hours if kept moist (Ref. 51276). Demersal spawners in nearshore habitats (Ref. 56049). Oviparous (Ref. 205). Commonly caught by 'poke-poling', a method using a long bamboo pole with a very short wire leader and baited hook. Good eating.
Oviparous (Ref. 205). Nests in crevices (Ref. 205). A parent coils about the eggs (Ref. 205).
