deskripsi pendek
Morfologi | Morfometrik
duri punggung lunak (Keseluruhan (total)): 11-12; Sirip dubur lunak: 6 - 7. Illicium about twice as long as second dorsal spine (Ref. 26938).
Inhabit shallow reefs (Ref. 9710). Commonly found in areas with sponges; background hue of the fish conforms to that of the dominant sponge in the areas and the ocelli look like openings in the sponge. Feed mainly on fishes, but also eat crustaceans (Ref. 13442). A voracious predator, with many color phases used for camouflage. Oviparous (Ref. 205). Eggs are bound in ribbon-like sheath or mass of gelatinous mucus called 'egg raft' or 'veil' (Ref. 6773). Most common frogfish in the West Indies (Ref. 26938).
Oviparous.
