Short description
Κλείδες προσδιορισμού | Μορφολογία | Μορφομετρία
Ραχιαίες άκανθες (συνολικά) : 0; Μαλακές ραχιαίες ακτίνες (συνολικά) : 24 - 32; Εδρικές άκανθες: 0; Μαλακές εδρικές ακτίνες: 4. Brownish in color, usually with small spots on trunk (Ref. 4281).
Body shape (shape guide): eel-like; Cross section: angular.
Inhabits subtidal lagoon and seaward reefs, usually among algae or seagrasses (Ref. 9710). Most are seen on sand and mud areas, prone to currents; usually soft bottom to about 25 m (Ref. 48635). Ovoviviparous (Ref. 205). The male carries the eggs in a brood pouch which is found under the tail (Ref. 205).
