Dimensione / Peso / Età
Maturità: Lm ?  range ? - ? cm
Max length : 5.0 cm TL maschio/sesso non determinato; (Ref. 2334)
Raggi dorsali molli (totale) : 12 - 43; Raggi anali molli: 22 - 40. Body fully scale. At least some of the dorsal saddles reaching a distinct lateral band. Combined number of soft rays in dorsal and anal fins usually 49 to 55 (Ref 12874).
Body shape (shape guide): elongated.
A cryptic species that occurs on sandy or gravel bottoms. Pointed snout is used for burrowing; eyes directed upwards for sighting prey. Found from shallow tide pools to at least 150 m (Ref. 2334). Eyes move independently and possess a refractive cornea, a convexiclivate fovea and a non-spherical lens (Ref. 50869). Neither cleitheral spine gland nor anterolateral glandural goove with gland is present (Ref. 57406).
