Maturity: Lm 40.0 range ? - ? cm
Max length : 65.0 cm TL macho/indeterminado; (Ref. 55); common length : 40.0 cm TL macho/indeterminado; (Ref. 55); peso máx. Publicado: 3.2 kg (Ref. 40637)
Espinhos dorsais (total): 10; Raios dorsais moles (total): 9-10; Espinhos anais 3; Raios anais moles: 8. The snout is relatively short and pointed. Anterior teeth in upper jaw enlarged, canine-like. Interorbital space convex. Dorsal and anal fin bases without scales. Pectoral fins long reaching level of anus. Scale rows on back parallel to lateral line. The back and upper sides violet or dark brown becoming lighter ventrally. Juveniles are mainly blue in color.
Adults inhabit mainly rocky bottoms. Young sometimes found near the surface. Feed on fishes and benthic organisms, including cephalopods and tunicates. Flesh of good quality; marketed fresh and frozen.
