"...a ferocious fish which has a large mouth and aggressive territorial behavior. They can be up to 30 centimeters (12 in) wide and are mostly scaleless with great pectoral fins and reduced pelvic fins. With highly compressed bodies, some may be so widened as to appear eel-like. They tend to hide inside shells or crevices. After the female spawns under a rock or in clam burrows the male guards the eggs. They are found in the Pacific, off the coast of North America, from San Francisco, California, to central Baja California and their depth range is from 3 to 73 meters (9.8 to 240 ft)."
Now that's a name (scientifically, its Neoclinus Blanchardi).
