Unfortunately, it's behind a paywall, but it's here: http://dx.doi.org/10.1111/jfb.13789 If you want a copy, try emailing Mark Westneat listed in the above URL.

However, here's a useful figure on which species burrow: https://twitter.com/mwestneat/status/1037394353357049859

Thanks for sharing. Man, that map is tough to see. I wonder if blowing it up will make it worse. I may try it.

The type still kinda runs into itself, even blown up - but it helps a lot. (Easy blowup: Hold down your "Ctrl" key, and type the "=" key a few times. Ctrl-0 will get you back to default.

Interesting that he includes Scarus and other labrids along with the fishes traditionally called wrasses.
