Etymology:
Hippocampus:
Greek, ippos = horse + Greek,kampe = curvature (Ref.
45335
)
;
spinosissimus:
Name from Latin word for winged, referring to the paired spines on the superior trunk ridges that are directed outward and have broad dermal flaps resembling wings (Ref.
42735
)
.

Environment: milieu / climate zone / depth range / distribution range
Ecology
Marine; brackish; reef-associated; non-migratory; depth range 10 - 80 m (Ref.
42735
). Subtropical; 22°C - 27°C (Ref.
130605
); 27°N - 36°S, 76°E - 155°E
Indo-Pacific: India and Sri Lanka to Australia; north to China.

  range ? - ? cm
Max length : 18.0 cm OT male/unsexed; (Ref.
48635
); 13.6 cm OT (female)
Dorsal
spines
(total): 0;
Dorsal
soft rays
(total): 16-20.
Found in the continental shelf, on muddy, sandy bottoms, rubbles and in coral reefs (Ref.
75154
); in a sponge or seagrass habitat, often attached to hard and soft coral species (Ref.
128284
). Ovoviviparous (Ref.
205
). The male carries the eggs in a brood pouch which is found under the tail (Ref.
205
). Maximum length is based on a straight-line length measurement from upper surface (ignoring spines) of first trunk ring, to tip of tail; female 13.8 cm (Ref.
42735
). Less desirable for traditional Chinese medicine, but use may increase with the rise in patent medicines. Taken in trawls (Ref.
42735
).
Male carries the eggs in a brood pouch (Ref.
205
).
