Short description
Chiavi di identificazione | Morfologia | Morfometria
Spine dorsali (totale) : 11; Raggi dorsali molli (totale) : 10 - 12; Spine anali: 3; Raggi anali molli: 8 - 9. This species is distinguished by the following characters: D XI-XII, 10-12; A III, 8-9; scale rows between the fifth dorsal-fin spine base and lateral line 3.5; cheek scale rows 3-4; body rounded; ventral infraorbital series above posterior part of upper jaw changing with growth from almost straight to weakly concave; second anal-fin spine robust and dull pointed; upper and lower jaws with thin lips,
especially anteriorly; broadly rounded rostral-most head squamation with ca. 10 somewhat smaller scales anteriorly; with growth, prominent ridge developing just before eye and dorsal head profile becoming slightly convex from snout to just above eye; upper and lower molar teeth strongly developed and
flattened on both sides, gradually more molariform posteriorly; upper molars in 3 or 4 rows anteriorly and 4 or 5 posteriorly, rows generally irregular, outer third row distinctly larger; lower molars in 3 or 4 rows anteriorly and 2 or 3 rows posteriorly, rows generally irregular, with innermost row largest posteriorly (outer second row gently curved outward); colour of head and body mostly black, sharply demarcated from whitish belly and chin; a dark spot at top of pectoral-fin base (Ref. 57874).
Body shape (shape guide): short and / or deep; Cross section: compressed.
