Short description
Morfologia | Morfometria

Gill rakers 6-7 + 17-18. Body depth 2.35-2.4 in SL; head length 4.1-4.4 in SL; snout length 2.4-2.6 in HL; longest dorsal spine 2.05-2.1 in HL. Dorsal profile of head from above front of eye to tip of recumbent dorsal spine concave. Caudal fin deeply emarginate, caudal concavity 1.35 in HL. The head and body light blue in life, with many small pale yellowish spots and very irregular narrow yellow bands, resulting in a fine reticular pattern for most of head and body (Ref. 55950).
