Facultative air-breathing in the genus (Ref. 126274); Are residents in intertidal areas with homing behavior (Ref. 32612). They are found between pebbles or at margins of steep, filamentous algae-covered rocks exposed to sunlight. They make underwater 'flight' over long distances. Feed almost exclusively on algae (Ref. 205), favoring the algae Ulva (Ref. 94105). Spawns from May to July. 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).
