Short description
Bestämningsnycklar | Morfologi | Morfometri
Taggstrålar i ryggfenan (totalt) : 7; Mjukstrålar i ryggfenan (totalt) : 9; Taggstrålar i analfenan: 2; Mjukstrålar i analfenan: 8 - 9. Opercular spine present. Horizontal diameter of the eye is less than the postorbital part of the head. Body deep (24-32 percent SL) (Ref. 31632). Caudal fin weakly forked, with rather deep caudal peduncle (Ref. 27363).
