	<dc:description>Found over sandy areas, usually near or within coral or rocky reefs (Ref. 42180, 75154).  Feeds on fishes and crtustaceans (Ref. 89972). Benthic (Ref. 58302, 75154).  At night, it is usually encountered with its head and even the anterior portion of its body protruding from the substrate at night (Ref. 42180).  At day time, it often remains buried with only the tip of its snout and the top of its head projecting from the sand or mud (Ref. 42180).</dc:description>
