The type locality (Akıncı Burnu) is a broad cove, a pebble beach of ca. 1000 m long. Smooth pebbles with various dimensions (1x1 cm to 15x10 cm) extend from the high water mark to one meter of depth, as a large band throughout the coast. The deeper parts of the shore (>1 m) with dense rocky substrates encircled by fine sand. Large rocks were covered with two dominant algae, Jania rubens and Cystoseira spp., together with chthamalid barnacles. The holotype was collected from under a greyish flattened stone at a depth of 0.3 m, salinity at 39.2 ppt, bottom water temperature 28.5°C and dissolved oxygen 4.75 mg/l while the paratypes were observed and collected on coarse shell grits around the Posidonia oceanica (Ref. 117931).
