Comments: A cryptic species that occurs on sandy or gravel bottoms.  Pointed snout is used for burrowing; eyes directed upwards for sighting prey.  Found from shallow tide pools to at least 150 m (Ref. 2334). Eyes move independently and possess a refractive cornea, a convexiclivate fovea and a non-spherical lens (Ref. 50869).  Neither cleitheral spine gland nor anterolateral glandural goove with gland is present (Ref. 57406).
