Short description
Claves de identificación | Morfología | Morfometría
Espinas dorsales (total) : 7; Radios blandos dorsales (total) : 13 - 14; Espinas anales: 1; Radios blandos anales: 13. Thin blue barring or rings near tail along the sides (Ref. 30404).
Inhabits shallow sandy areas among seagrass (Ref. 1602) and in silty lagoons amongst rubble (Ref. 30404). Lives in burrows with alpheid shrimp species with dark bands on back (Ref. 30404). Feeds on small benthic invertebrates (Ref. 89972).
