Description This small-sized flatfish occurs in shallow, marine and estuarine habitats in southern Africa. Juveniles are
estuarine-dependent and estuaries in southern Africa are being negatively affected by pollution and
other forms of environmental degradation. This species is not targeted by fisheries though it is likely
present in demersal trawl bycatch. At this time, the species is considered Least Concern. Given the
estuarine-dependent juvenile life stage and the degradation of its nursery habitats, this species should
be monitored for changes in distribution and relative abundance.
