Size / Peso / Age
Maturità: Lm ?  range ? - ? cm
Max length : 9.0 cm TL maschio/sesso non determinato; (Ref. 59088)
Spine dorsali (totale) : 7 - 8; Raggi dorsali molli (totale) : 19 - 24; Spine anali: 3; Raggi anali molli: 17 - 20; Vertebre: 26. Live fish with light yellowish brown body, the center of each scale with dark brown spot thus forming a longitudinal pattern of dark brown lines. Prominent black spot on opercle. A broad-based, long, slender, dermal flap dorsally on eye. Two large pores in mid-interorbital space, one on each side close to the edge of the orbit, with the aperture nearly covered by a flap from the median side. There are several small pores in the median part of interorbital. Tubular anterior nostril when laid back reaching at most half way to posterior nostril (Ref. 27020).
Body shape (shape guide): fusiform / normal; Cross section: oval.
Inhabits rocky crevices. Feeds mainly on small fishes and benthic crustaceans (Ref. 11482).
