Maturity: Lm 9.0 range ? - ? cm
Max length : 18.0 cm SL αρσενικό/απροσδιόριστο; (Ref. 4742); common length : 12.0 cm SL αρσενικό/απροσδιόριστο; (Ref. 4742); μεγ. αναφερόμενη ηλικία: 8 έτη (Ref. 4742)
Adults are found mainly in eel-grass beds. Often in pairs. Males nest-makers. Feed mainly on mollusks, gastropods, bivalves, tubicolous worms, chitons, sea urchins and bryozoans (Ref. 4742). Oviparous, distinct pairing during breeding (Ref. 205).
