Short description Bestämningsnycklar | Morfologi | Morfometri

Taggstrålar i ryggfenan (totalt) : 7 - 9; Mjukstrålar i ryggfenan (totalt) : 12 - 14; Taggstrålar i analfenan: 0; Mjukstrålar i analfenan: 10 - 12. Four preopercular spines, the uppermost curved upward (Ref. 559). Supraocular cirrus simple (Ref. 559). Pelvic fin united with belly by means of a wide dermal fold (Ref. 559).
