Short description
पहचान कुंजी | आकृति विज्ञान | मौरफोमैटरिक्स
पृष्ठीय रीढ़ (सम्पूर्ण) : 7; पृष्ठीय सौफट रेज़ (सम्पूर्ण) : 9; गुदा कांटा: 1; ऐनल सौफट रेज़: 8. This species is distinguished from its congeners by the following combination of set of characters: D VI + I,9, the second spine of first dorsal fin longest but not elongate; A I,8;
pectoral-fin rays 14-15, all rays unbranched; longitudinal scale series 25; head and predorsal midline scaleless with side of nape scaled; interorbital shallowly concave, bony width 46% of pupil diameter; developed transverse pattern of sensory papillae rows on cheek; interorbital space with anterior and posterior transverse rows of papillae; pelvic fins are mostly separated with height of basal membrane between innermost pelvic-fin rays 10.7% of length of fifth ray; unbranched fifth pelvic-fin ray, its length 47% length of fourth ray; body and most of itss head are brownish orange densely covered with melanophores; snout, lips, chin, and chest are black; iris black; fins translucent with narrow black stripe along the base of first and second dorsal fins.(Ref. 111071).
Cross section: compressed.
The specimen was found in a small cave in the wall of seaward reef at a depth of 27-29 m, with the wall extending to a depth of 35 m (Ref. 111071).
