Pholis clemensi is a small marine fish with a long body. It lives in cold coastal waters of the northern Pacific Ocean and hides among stones.
Pholis clemensi differs from related species by a very long dorsal fin and spotted body coloration. The fish is important for nature because it participates in the food chain of coastal waters and eats small invertebrates.
Near-shore terrestrial and marine zones influenced by the sea.
Locomotion through water employed while searching for or capturing prey.
Legendary longevity: over 100 years. Galapagos tortoises, Greenland sharks, ocean quahogs celebrate with family once every 4 years
