Comments: This species is usually found in open tide-pools and areas with strong regular surges generated by wave swells. Individuals often inhabit the surface of large rocks, but also slits and holes in large rocks, at depths of less than 25 m (usually less than 15 m). Spawning at Shikoku is reported to occur from early morning until about 10 am starting in June (Ref. 118055).
