Spine dorsali (totale): 12; Raggi dorsali molli (totale): 7-8; Spine anali 3; Raggi anali molli: 8. Coloration can vary from pale gray with black blotches and blue dots to an almost uniformly black except for the ever-present blue ocellus on the edge of its operculum.

Biologia     Glossario (es. epibenthic)

Adults are benthic which occur inshore (Ref. 7300). Relatively common on reef flats, searching under rocks or in crevices for small fishes and crustaceans which serve as food (Ref. 1602). Common, but hidden in holes by day. They venture out to feed on small invertebrates and fishes at night (Ref. 9710). Apparently, gastropods form an important component of the diet as indicated by X-ray radiographs (Ref. 27772). Eggs are guarded by the male parent (Ref. 205). Minimum depth reported from Ref. 27115.
