	<dc:description>Found in the continental shelf, on muddy, sandy bottoms, rubbles and in coral reefs (Ref. 75154); in a sponge or seagrass habitat, often attached to hard and soft coral species (Ref. 128284).  Ovoviviparous (Ref. 205).  The male carries the eggs in a brood pouch which is found under the tail (Ref. 205). Maximum length is based on a straight-line length measurement from upper surface (ignoring spines) of first trunk ring, to tip of tail; female 13.8 cm (Ref. 42735). Less desirable for traditional Chinese medicine, but use may increase with the rise in patent medicines. Taken in trawls (Ref. 42735).</dc:description>

	<dc:description>Description:  (based on 53 specimens):  Adult height:  5.3-16.0cm.  Rings:  11+36 (33-39).  Snout length:  2.2-2.3 (2.0-2.4) in head length.  Dorsal fin rays:  17-18 (16-20) covering 2+1 rings.  Pectoral fin rays:  17 (16-19).  Coronet:  low-medium with four or five sharp spines.  Spines:  well-developed, blunt tipped or quite sharp, usually longer on first, fourth, seventh and eleventh trunk rings and with a regular series of longer spines on tail.  Other distinctive characters:  single or double cheek spines; males with very strongly developed spines bordering pouch (blunt-tipped); no nose spine (or very small); spine in front of coronet not excessively developed.  Color pattern:  variable; plain, or pale with darker ‘saddles’ across dorsolateral surface and darker cross-bands on tail.</dc:description>
