Note

An ecological study of the banded blennyParaclinus fasciatus (Steindachner, 1876) showed that the fish is tolerant of physical/chemical conditions in the shallow subtidal area of Apalachee Bay, Florida (USA). Population density of P. fasciatus was unrelated to physical/chemical characteristics and seagrass biomass at field stations. A strong correlation was found between numbers of P. fasciatus captured and abundance of unattached red algae (drift algae) at the field sites, although seasonality in population density was related to summer spawning.
