Comments: Adults inhabit surge-swept reef margins (Ref. 1602).  Found on rock surfaces under ledges (Ref. 13227) of coral reefs covered with algae (Ref. 90102).  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).
