Краткое описание
определительные ключи | морфология | морфометрия
колючие лучи спинного плавника (общее число) : 5; членистые (мягкие) лучи спинного плавника (общее число) : 16 - 18; членистые (мягкие) лучи анального плавника: 17 - 19; позвонки: 32. This species is distinguished by the following characters: short dorsal, pelvic and caudal fins; truncate or slightly rounded caudal fin; fin membranes entire; olfactory rosette in females with a small dorsal patch of a nasal lamellae, males with a larger patch filling about half of the nasal cavity; no premaxillary spine; fin counts low; multifid dermal papillae; color in live individuals pale green with lighter mottling, spinous dorsal fin membrane between 2 anteriormost spines typically with large black blotches and body with scattered dark spot; small size at maturity, females with eggs 34.3-46.9 mm (Ref .57851).
Body shape (shape guide): other; Cross section: flattened.
Found in coral reef of inshore waters. Benthic species (Ref. 75154). Females carry the eggs in their pelvic fins that are modified to form a brood pouch (Ref. 205). Often among Halimeda or coralline algae, whhich it greatly resembles (Ref 90102).

Pelvic fins of females are modified as brood pouch for the reception of the eggs (Ref. 205).
