Comments: Found only on sandy areas, and symbiotically associates with a snapping shrimp, probably <i>Alpheus djiboutensis</i> 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 <i>Alpheus</i> species which is not <i>A. djiboutensis</i> (Ref. 90832).
