Descripción breve
Claves de identificación | Morfología | Morfometría
Espinas dorsales (total) : 7; Radios blandos dorsales (total) : 13 - 15; Espinas anales: 1; Radios blandos anales: 12 - 14. Males with 3 black spots near base of 2nd dorsal fin and round spots on cheek; females with brown-edged band from upper lip to upper operculum (Ref. 2798).
Body shape (shape guide): fusiform / normal.
Adults are epibenthic and littoral, entering estuaries and lagoons (Ref. 4343). Usually seen in pairs, hovering a short distance above the substratum. Monogamous (Ref. 52884). It builds its burrow in sand or silty sand by moving out mouthfuls of sediment (Ref. 11441). Maximum depth reported taken from Ref. 9773.
