Etymology: Ophioblennius: Greek, ophis = serpent + Greek, blennios = mucus (Ref. 45335).
Eponymy: Dr Charles Freeman Williams McClure (1865–1955) was an American anatomist and embryologist. [...] (Ref. 128868), visit book page.
Environment: milieu / climate zone / depth range / distribution range
Ecologia
marinhas associadas(os) a recifes. Tropical
Western Central Atlantic: North Carolina, Florida, Caribbean (Bermuda population may be distinct species).
Tamanho / Peso / Idade
Maturity: Lm ?  range ? - ? cm
Max length : 12.2 cm TL macho/indeterminado; (Ref. 26340)
Espinhos dorsais (total) : 12; Raios dorsais (total) : 19 - 21; Espinhos anais: 2; Raios anais : 20 - 21; Vértebras: 33. Lateral line consists of 2 disconnected, elongate portions where the anterior portion overlaps with the anterior end of the ventral portion (Ref. 43469).
Body shape (shape guide): fusiform / normal.
Adults inhabit shallow, clear waters with coral or rock bottoms (Ref. 5521). Territorial (Ref. 9710). 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).
