Body bluish or reddish dorsally, lighter ventrally. 4-5 cheek scales; 23-30 predorsal scales; scaled dorsal and anal fins; confluent Supra-temporal band of scales at dorsal midline. Upper peduncular scale rows 12-14; lower peduncular scale rows usually 16-17 (15-17). Post maxillary processes 2; posterior end of maxilla tapered. A small flat process on either side of ventrolateral surface of basioccipital, projection not ventrally far from ventral rim of condyle (Ref. 1723). Caudal fin lobes with dark tips. Head length 3.1-3.7 in SL; body depth 4.1-5.3 in SL (Ref. 90102).
