Dorsale stekels (totaal) : 2; Dorsale zachte stralen (totaal) : 43 - 50; Anale stekels: 0; Anale zachte stralen: 46 - 52. Snout concave (Ref. 1602); olive brown to grey in color, juveniles may be yellowish brown with dark spots (Ref. 4421). Elongate, strongly compressed filefish; tan with blue lines and spots.
