The Madeira rockfish is a small eastern Atlantic fish. Its mottled body has warm brown-red shades, and strong spines support the dorsal fin. It lives around rocks and other seabed structures.

It eats crustaceans and small fish. While resting and waiting for prey it relies on camouflage: irregular blotches make its outline difficult to see against overgrown rocks.
