Short description
Claves de identificación | Morfología | Morfometría
Espinas dorsales (total) : 13; Radios blandos dorsales (total) : 8; Espinas anales: 3; Radios blandos anales: 5; Vértebra: 24. This species is distinguished by the following set of characters: D soft rays 8; pectoral-fin rays 16-17, rays 11-12 (from uppermost ray) are noticeably longer than rest in smallest four type specimens; caudal-fin rays 25-27; vertebrae 8 precaudal + 16 caudal = 24; spines on suborbital ridge 4 (rarely 5); no secondary suborbital ridge spines; 2 prominent round to oblong pores in suborbital sensory canal immediately ventral to suborbital ridge; absence of coronal, interorbital, upper post temporal and postorbital spines; incomplete lateral line, 8-10 pored scales extending from behind supracleithral spine to mid body; cirri associated with
nasal, supraocular, and parietal spines and present on posteroventral projection of lacrimal
and upper left quadrant of the orbit; no cirri associated with postocular, tympanic,
supracleithral, and lower posttemporal spines; relatively elongate body, its depth at origin
of dorsal fin 30-32% SL, depth at caudal peduncle 9-10% SL; when alive, colour bright
orange-red with several reddish-brown bars on posterior portion of trunk, the pectoral fin
with vivid yellow spots interspersed with bright orange-red spots (Ref. 109716).
Body shape (shape guide): fusiform / normal; Cross section: compressed.
Collected on rocky substrata on a vertical rock wall (Ref. 109716).
