Spine dorsali (totale): 13; Raggi dorsali molli (totale): 18-19; Spine anali 2; Raggi anali molli: 21 - 22. Closely related to Rhabdoblennius, but differs by 13 dorsal spines. Nasal and nuchal cirri palmate. Supraorbital with 2 long, slender cirri.
A rare species (Ref. 559). Adults live in abandoned worm tubes, solitary or in loose groups (Ref. 90102). Oviparous. Eggs are demersal and adhesive (Ref. 205), and are attached to the substrate via a filamentous, adhesive pad or pedestal (Ref. 94114). Larvae are planktonic, often found in shallow, coastal waters (Ref. 94114).

Estimates based on models
Preferred temperature (Ref.
123201): 24.5 - 29.2, mean 28.4 °C (based on 2109 cells).
Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref.
82804): PD
50 = 0.5312 [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].
Bayesian length-weight: a=0.00741 (0.00335 - 0.01640), b=3.02 (2.83 - 3.21), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this (Sub)family-body shape (Ref.

Resilienza (Ref.
120179): Alto, tempo minimo di raddoppiamento della popolazione meno di 15 mesi (Preliminary K or Fecundity.).
Fishing Vulnerability (Ref.
