Two new interspecific associations of the hairy blenny Labrisomus nuchipinnis (Teleostei: Labrisomidae) on the South Atlantic

Abstract

Associations of the hairy blenny Labrisomus nuchipinnis (Labrisomidae) are described for the first time from different observations made on the coast of Brazil, South Atlantic. The first involved a majid crab cleaning the fish and the second, another fish following closely a foraging hermit crab of the genus Paguristes (Diogenidae).
