Claves de identificación | Morfología | Morfometría
Espinas dorsales (total) : 16 - 17; Radios blandos dorsales (total) : 19 - 22; Espinas anales: 2; Radios blandos anales: 25 - 28.
Body shape (shape guide): elongated.
Facultative air-breathing (Ref. 126274); Adults are found in the intertidal zone of exposed rocky shores, often out of the water (Ref. 11441). They actively shuttle back and forth between rock pools and air (skipper) (Ref. 31184). Breathe air when out of water (Ref. 31184). Oviparous (Ref. 205). Eggs are demersal and adhesive (Ref. 205), and are attached to the substrate via a filamentous, adhesive pad or pedestal (Ref. 94114). Larvae are planktonic, often found in shallow, coastal waters (Ref. 94114).
