Taggstrålar i ryggfenan (totalt) : 10 - 11; Mjukstrålar i ryggfenan (totalt) : 17 - 19; Taggstrålar i analfenan: 2; Mjukstrålar i analfenan: 17 - 19.
Adults are found in seagrass beds or bottoms with heavy algal growth. Captured at the surface using a hand net (Ref. 26165). Oviparous. 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).
