FBname: Sharp-toothed grunter
Comments: Inhabits streams, preferring deep back waters and slow-flowing portions.  Forms shoals in the middle of the water column with <i>Hephaestus jenkinsi</i> Whitley, 1945.  Occurs in clear waters over rocky substrates, usually where algae are in abundance.  Found in highest abundance during snorkelling in Pitta Creek, 1km upstream from the confluence with the Prince Regent River (Ref. 119336).
