Eastern Atlantic: Norway, Faroes and British Isles to Western Sahara, Senegambia, and from Namibia to Cape of Good Hope and northward to the coast of Zululand in the western Indian Ocean (Ref. 4127). Also throughout the Mediterranean, Aegean and Black seas. Despite literature records, occurrence in the Indo-Pacific outside South African waters lacks conclusive evidence (Ref. 4281). 東大西洋: 挪威, 法羅與不列顛群島到西撒哈拉, Senegambia, 與從那米比亞到好望角而且向北至在西印度洋的祖魯蘭的海岸.(參考文獻 4127) 也在地中海,愛琴海與黑海各處。 不在乎文獻記錄,發生在印度-太平洋在南非水域之外缺乏決定性的證據。 (參考文獻 4281)

Found in coastal and estuarine waters to depths of at least 110 m (Ref. 4281); on sand, mud and rough bottoms. Common amongst algae and eel-grass (Zostera) (Refs. 4146, 6733, 88187). Feeds mainly on small crustaceans (Ref. 85544). It is parasitised by the monogenean Gyrodactylus eyipayipi on the body surface, inside the flute and male brood pouch (Ref. 124059).

Ovoviviparous; reproducing on average 3 times each year (Ref. 89328). Several females depositing partial clutches to a male’s brood pouch under the tail (Refs. 205, 31201). Up to 400 eggs may be found in a single pouch (Ref. 89329). Brooding males occur mainly between May and July (Refs. 31201, 58137). During the breeding season, both males and females were observed to remain low amongst the seagrass in one meadow (Ref. 31201). Gestation period lasts about 5 weeks and size at birth is 1.7- 3.5 cm (Refs. 58137, 88187, 89330). Aquarium experiments have shown that new born young are benthic, remaining close to the bottom Ref. 89330).東大西洋: 挪威, 法羅與不列顛群島到西撒哈拉, Senegambia, 與從那米比亞到好望角而且向北至在西印度洋的祖魯蘭的海岸.(參考文獻 4127) 也在地中海,愛琴海與黑海各處。 不在乎文獻記錄,發生在印度-太平洋在南非水域之外缺乏決定性的證據。 (參考文獻 4281)
