Strong thermoclines were frequently encountered between 40-50 m on these slopes, thus consequently this species is likely exposed to temperatures ranging from about 24-29º C (Ref. 122935).

Colour pattern when alive mottled brown with gray lateral stripes corresponding to lateral-scale rows, whitish margins with orange vermiculations on dorsal fins and upper edge of caudal fin, and basal half of first-dorsal fin with a yellow-edged partial ocellus (Ref. 122935).Description: Urogenital papilla of male with a triangular base and a slender, tubular distal tip, and all covered with pepper-like melanophores, while in female it is broad (width and length about equal) with a flattened, darkly-pigmented ventral surface and a pair of tiny cirri laterally at distal edge of each side (Ref. 122935).
