Determinatiesleutels | Morfologie | Morfometrie
Dorsale stekels (totaal) : 0; Dorsale zachte stralen (totaal) : 10 - 11; Anale stekels: 0; Anale zachte stralen: 4 - 5. Olive pink or green to brown, red, yellow or lilac, with or without stripes, spots or bars. Breeding males with pinkish dorsal saddle. Distinguished from other clingfishes by the large, rounded head with incisorform teeth and a large, blunt posteriorly projecting spine at the lower margin of the operculum.
Common in rock pools at low tide and sub-tidally. Found clinging under rocks or boulders in more sheltered areas. Feeds on amphipods, gastropods, and fishes. Takes cover when disturbed.
Eggs are guarded by the male.
