Short description
Chiavi di identificazione | Morfologia | Morfometria
Raggi dorsali molli (totale) : 11 - 12; Raggi anali molli: 9; Vertebre: 58 - 59. This species is distinct in having the following characters: D 11- 12; A 9; pectoral rays 12-13; lateral-line scales 58-60; 4½ scales between lateral line and base of dorsal fin; median predorsal scales 18; vertebrae 58-59; peritoneal spots 9-10; anterior palatine teeth of inner row much longer than posterior teeth; preopercle not scaled posterior to corner of mouth; membranous posterior flap of anterior nostril triangular, with a slightly attenuate tip, reaching to above posterior nostril when laid back; depth of body 6.6-7.35 in SL; pectoral fins reaching a line connecting dorsal- and pelvic-fin origins, fin length 2.4-2.6 in HL; alcohol preserved color pale yellowish with 9
irregular light brown circles along lateral line, each linked narrowly to an irregular, slightly oblique, brown bar to lower side of body; tip of dorsal part of snout with a pair of small brown spots; when fresh, the color is light orangish brown dorsally, white ventrally, dark markings a mixture of orange and dark brownish red; pelvic fins crossed by 6 dark orangish brown bands twice as broad as white interspaces (Ref. 80927).
Body shape (shape guide): elongated.
Paratypes were collected from rubble and sand bottom (Ref. 80927).
