Short description
Morfologia | Morfometria
Spine dorsali (totale): 0; Raggi dorsali molli (totale): 18-19; Spine anali 0; Raggi anali molli: 8 - 9. Characterized by having blackish spots on cheek; fully united pelvic fins forming disc; rounded caudal fin, about equal to head length; absence of scales and head pores; tricuspid jaw teeth, enlarged outer row; depth of body 6.0 in SL (Ref. 90102); body green with red dorsal, anal, and caudal fins; SL to 25 mm (Ref. 1602).
Intertidal, actively shuttling back and forth between rock pools and air (Ref. 31184). Feeds on algae and crustaceans. Tolerates a wide range of temperature and salinity (Ref. 1602). Breathes air when out of water (Ref. 31184).
