Max length : 25.0 cm TL mâle / non sexé; (Ref. 10797); common length : 13.0 cm TL mâle / non sexé; (Ref. 10797)
Épines dorsales (Total): 14; Rayons mous dorsaux (Total): 9-11; Épines anales 2; Rayons mous anaux: 9 - 11
Adults form small shoals in midwater above or near rocky reefs or above seagrass meadows (Posidonia. They feed on small planktonic or benthic animals (Ref. 6760). Reproduce in summer (Ref. 6760). Eggs characterized by adhesive filaments are nested on rocky or sandy bottoms (Ref. 6760). Males guard the eggs (Ref. 6760).
Oviparous, distinct pairing during breeding (Ref. 205). Eggs are demersal and adhere to the substrate (Ref. 205). Breed on rocky or sandy bottoms (Ref. 6760). Males guard the eggs (Ref. 6760).
