Summary description from Wikipedia:

Spinynose sculpin

The spinynose sculpin (Asemichthys taylori) is a species of marine ray-finned fish belonging to the family Cottidae, the typical sculpins. It is found in the northeastern Pacific Ocean from Alaska south to Washington and the San Juan Islands. The spinynose sculpin is the only species in the monospecific genus Asemichthys. This sculpin lays its eggs on the egg masses of the buffalo sculpin (Enophrys bison), thought to be a strategy to take advantage of the larger fish’s egg guarding behaviour.
