Size / Peso / Age
Maturity: Lm ?  range ? - ? cm
Max length : 5.0 cm SL maschio/sesso non determinato; (Ref. 7050)
Spine dorsali (totale): 12 - 14; Raggi dorsali molli (totale): 17-20; Spine anali 2; Raggi anali molli: 21 - 23. Irregular bands on body. Males with spot and stripes in middles of soft dorsal fin (Ref. 4404).
Adults inhabit rocky reefs with oysters, and often found in estuaries (Ref. 90102). 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).

Estimates based on models
Preferred temperature (Ref.
123201): 25.1 - 29.3, mean 28.6 °C (based on 2232 cells).
Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref.
