Résumé

Associations between juveniles of two species of clingfish (Apletodon incognitus and Lepadogaster candollei) and gobies (Gobius bucchichi, Millerigobius macrocephalus and Zebrus zebrus) and two species of sea urchins (Arbacia lixula and Paracentrotus lividus) are described in the western Mediterranean Sea. The fish hide below the sea urchins between the spines.
