Max length : 75.0 cm TL hane/ej könsbestämd; (Ref. 9710); common length : 50.0 cm TL hane/ej könsbestämd; (Ref. 55); publicerad maxvikt: 14.0 kg (Ref. 9710)
Taggstrålar i ryggfenan (totalt): 10; Mjukstrålar i ryggfenan (totalt): 14; Taggstrålar i analfenan 3; Mjukstrålar i analfenan: 8. Preopercular notch and knob weak. Scale rows on back rising obliquely above lateral line. Mainly scarlet red, silvery on lower sides and belly; fins are yellowish to orange. A prominent black blotch is at the base and in axil of pectoral fins.
Adults inhabit deeper waters over sandy or rocky bottoms and near drop-offs and ledges. Young occur in shallower water, often between about 35 and 50 m. Feed mainly on fishes. Good food fish, it is marketed mostly fresh (Ref. 55).
