Comments |
A single specimen was captured from around a large boulder in a macroalgae dominated biotope, mixed with large sponges and sparse encrusting hard corals on rock platform in 8-11 m at Socotra Island. It was recorded once visually on the south coast of Socotra in a highly dynamic habitat with a mixed macroalgae and hard coral community at 5-6 m depth (12 March 1999, ST-021). Appears to be very rare and is yet unknown from the other islands of the archipelago (Ref. 88695). |
