Remarks | Dominant inshore demersal fish in waters of the west Antarctic Peninsula, including the South Shetland Islands, Palmer Archipelago, and the South Orkney Islands. Remains nearshore once it becomes demersal after an early pelagic phase although observed around Elephant Island to migrate in deeper waters for spawning. Mainly abundant in areas of high macroalgal density (Ref. 38440). |
