Short description
Bestämningsnycklar | Morfologi | Morfometri
Taggstrålar i ryggfenan (totalt) : 10; Mjukstrålar i ryggfenan (totalt) : 58 - 60; Taggstrålar i analfenan: 2; Mjukstrålar i analfenan: 55 - 57. Yellowish brown head and body; greyish brown dorsal and anal fin; dorsal fin membranes with numerous tiny black spots; pale yellow pectoral fin with black spot on upper base; yellow caudal fin with black upper margin and black filamentous outer lobes. Segmented caudal rays 11; adults of both sexes with elongate and filamentous caudal fin outer lobes (much longer in males (up to 50% of SL); dentary incisors with arrowhead-shaped tips; 4 interorbital pore; body depth ca. 20-22 in SL. Maximum size to 27 cm TL (Ref. 90102).
Body shape (shape guide): eel-like.
Adults are found in muddy sand bottoms (Ref. 90102). 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).
