Eumicrotremus awae Dwarf Lumpsucker | Japan

This is a dwarf lumpsucker (Eumicrotremus awae) , known as a dango-uo in Japanese. This fully grown fish measured about one centimeter in length. I photographed it just before the beginning of the annual reproductive season. These lumpsuckers generally live for only one year.
