Kurzbeschreibung
Bestimmungsschlüssel | Morphologie | Morphometrie
Rückenflossenstacheln (insgesamt) : 7; Rückenflossenweichstrahlen (insgesamt) : 13; Afterflossenstacheln: 1; Afterflossenweichstrahlen: 13; Wirbelzahl: 25. Diagnosis: Dorsal rays VI+I, 13; anal rays I, 13; pectoral rays 19; pelvic fins joined by membrane to tips of fifth rays; pelvic frenum present; fourth pelvic ray longest; fifth pelvic ray branching twice. Longitudinal scale series 91-103; no median predorsal scales; scales on side of nape extending to above middle of opercle. Gill opening reaching forward to a vertical about two-thirds orbit diameter behind eye. Body depth 5.8-6.1 in SL; head length 3.6-3.8 in SL; caudal fin pointed and long, 2.2-2.6 in SL. Pale brown dorsally, white ventrally, with three indistinct brown bars on body, and a slightly oblique brown bar from nape across opercle; pale interspaces with small brown blotches, faintly interconnected; a pair of prominent black spots on chin; dorsal fins yellowish grey, the first dorsal with small irregular dark-edged pale blue spots and orange tipped spines, the second dorsal with a broad yellow border containing small dark-edged pale blue spots, the rays tipped with orange; caudal fin with a vertically elongate diffuse brown spot on base (Ref. 57552).
Body shape (shape guide): elongated; Cross section: circular.
The species inhabits silty sand areas and is associated with unidentified alpheid shrimp, where this species takes refuge in the shrimp's burrow (Ref. 57552).
