Etymology: Dunckerocampus: From Duncker, an ichthyologist and taxonomist that recognized four Gobiidae families (1928) + Gr, kampe = bent; boylei: Named for Bill Boyle, an underwater fish photographer who brought the species to the attention of the author.
Eponymy: Dr Paul Georg Egmont Duncker (1870–1953) was a German zoologist and ichthyologist. [...] Bill Boyle, an underwater fish photographer, brought this species to the author’s attention. (Ref. 128868), visit book page.

Kurzbeschreibung
Bestimmungsschlüssel | Morphologie | Morphometrie
Rückenflossenweichstrahlen (insgesamt) : 21; Afterflossenweichstrahlen: 4. Broader bands and diagnostic caudal fin pattern (Ref. 48635).
Body shape (shape guide): eel-like.
Adults prefer depths of about 25 m or more and is easily overlooked (Ref. 48635). Ovoviviparous (Ref. 205). The male carries the eggs in a brood pouch which is found under the tail (Ref. 205). Solitary or in pairs in caves and crevices (Ref 90102).
