Comments: Adults occur at shallow depths, often seen associated with coralline rocks, seagrass or algae (Ref. 13227).  Eggs are hemispherical and covered with numerous sticky threads that anchor them in the algae on the nesting sites (Ref. 240).  Larvae are planktonic which occur primarily in shallow, nearshore waters (Ref. 94114).
