Short description
Morfologia | Morfometria
Spine dorsali (totale): 38 - 43; Raggi dorsali molli (totale): 14-18; Spine anali 2; Raggi anali molli: 42 - 44; Vertebre: 60 - 62. Pelvic fins present, each of a minute spine; first dorsal spine associated with first pterygiophore; first anal pterygiophore noticeably more massive than second; ventrolateral lateral line not connected; meridioventral lateral line absent (Ref. 48788). Caudal fin rounded.
Subtidal species found in rocky areas among benthic encrusting communities in algal cover or kelp holdfasts (Ref. 48788). Minimum depth from Ref. 58018.
