Short description
Claves de identificación | Morfología | Morfometría
Espinas dorsales (total) : 0; Radios blandos dorsales (total) : 21 - 26; Espinas anales: 0; Radios blandos anales: 3. Brownish in color, sometimes with irregular diffuse pale bars on dorsum (Ref. 4281).
Collected from reef pool, rock, and coral habitats to a depth of over 15 m. Ovoviviparous (Ref. 205). The male carries the eggs in a brood pouch which is found under the tail (Ref. 205). Solitary, but seldom noticed due to cryptic habits (Ref 90102).
