Short description
Claves de identificación | Morfología | Morfometría
Espinas dorsales (total) : 7; Radios blandos dorsales (total) : 8 - 9; Espinas anales: 1; Radios blandos anales: 7 - 8; Vértebra: 25. This species is distinguished by the following set of characters: cephalic sensory-canal pores absent; D VI-I,8-9, no filamentous spines; A I,7-8; pelvic fin I,5, rays 1-4 branched, fifth ray unbranched or with two branches, elongate (77–88% of fourth) and flattened towards the tips if unbranched, fourth ray longest; well-developed pelvic fin membrane fully joining fifth pelvic fin rays, no frenum; pectoral fin rays 14-15, some branched; body robust and deep, anterior slope of snout nearly vertical giving the head a blunt profile, terminal mouth inclined vertically forming a 72° angle to horizontal body axis (Ref. 132107).
Cross section: oval.
Collected from crustose coralline algae (CCA) covered roofs of small caves with lots of holes, using clove oil and hand netp; rotenone was also used for some collections. Six specimens were collected from a single mass sampling at a CCA-covered wall with small crevices and holes and one of the specimens analyzed in this study was collected from exposed offshore reefs.The species may be more common at similar mesophotic depths, but further collections are needed to confirm this (Ref. 132107).
