Blackcap basslet — size comparison — facts and sources

The blackcap basslet has a violet body and dark cap. It lives beside steep walls and drop-offs beyond western Atlantic outer reefs, often deeper than thirty metres.

It swims with its belly towards rock surfaces, including beneath overhangs, and immediately hides in crevices when alarmed. It occurs deeper more often than the similar yellow-reared royal gramma.
