Phycis phycis  (Family: Phycidae, common name: Larger forkbeard)

This forkbeard was observing me as I was taking some photos in the vicinity. I approached carefully trying to get a shot of it before it disappeared under the rocks. It stayed for a while as I approached very slowly, then it turned around and moved inside the cave.
