eastern jumping blenny
Lepidoblennius haplodactylus
The eastern jumping blenny is a small marine fish up to 12 centimeters long. It lives on rocky shores of eastern Australia and can jump out of the water to move between tide pools.
The eastern jumping blenny stands out with its ability to jump on wet rocks, which helps it escape enemies and find new tide pools. It is important for nature because it eats small invertebrates and serves as food for larger animals.
