marina bottenlevande; djupintervall 1 - 27 m (Ref. 26268). Tropical; 27°N - 10°N, 89°W - 60°W (Ref. 26268)
Western Central Atlantic: Widespread through insular regions of the Caribbean Sea, including Glover's Reef, St. Eustatius, St. Barthelemy, and the French West Indies. Rarely captured along the continental margins of the Caribbean.
Length at first maturity / Size / Vikt / Age
Maturity: Lm ?, range 3 - ? cm
Max length : 4.3 cm SL hane/ej könsbestämd; (Ref. 53028); 5.7 cm SL (female)
Mjukstrålar i ryggfenan (totalt) : 76 - 77; Mjukstrålar i analfenan: 61 - 62. Slender, small; pale with distinct, dark ocellated spots near rear of dorsal and anal fins.
Inhabits sandy substrates, also those submerged beds of aquatic vegetation, in clear shallow waters near coral reefs. Little is known of its biology since its captured infrequently and generally in small numbers; most captures were a single fish (Ref. 26268).
