Short description
Claves de identificación | Morfología | Morfometría
Espinas dorsales (total) : 12; Radios blandos dorsales (total) : 15 - 17; Espinas anales: 2; Radios blandos anales: 17 - 19. In life, it is dark brown with black blotches on the sides and black bars on the head, and clear fins (Ref. 1602).
Body shape (shape guide): elongated.
A rare species, living among the roots of mangrove trees (Ref. 559). Also found in estuaries and stream mouths (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).
