Biología     Glosario (por ej. epibenthic)

Found only on sandy areas, and symbiotically associates with a snapping shrimp, probably Alpheus djiboutensis where it swims freely at ca. 10-15 cm above the nest hole as it moves its pectoral fins alternately. It was also reported that, in the northern Red Sea, it is associated with an unidentified Alpheus species which is not A. djiboutensis (Ref. 90832).
