Special thanks for the foto to Rudie Kuiter, the famous biologist and scientist from Australia!
Distribution:
Eastern Indian Ocean: Present in southwestern Australia.
Biology:
Found on rocky substrate.
Synonymised taxa:
Norfolkia incisa Kuiter, 1986
Jumping guard
A jumping guard prevents (nocturnal) fish from jumping out.
Wrasses, blennies, hawkfishs and gobies jump out of an unprotected tank in fright if their night rest is disturbed, unfortunately these jumpers are found dried up in the morning on carpets, glass edges or later behind the tank.

A small night light also helps, as it provides the fish with a means of orientation in the dark!
