Épines dorsales (Total) : 12; Rayons mous dorsaux (Total) : 18; Épines anales: 2; Rayons mous anaux: 20; Vertèbres: 37. This species is distinguished by the following characters: pinnately branched, supraorbital cirrus about equal eye diameter in height; small nape cirrus; lower jaws with relatively large, heavily pigmented labial flap on either side of chin; innermost (third), segmented pelvic-fin ray obvious externally (Ref. 89414).
Known from its type locality which is situated next to shore along a wave-exposed coast in 0-3 m depth; the bottom with large algal-covered boulders in an area of very strong surge (Ref. 89414). Oviparous. Eggs are demersal and adhesive (Ref. 205), and are attached to the substrate via a filamentous, adhesive pad or pedestal (Ref. 94114). Larvae are planktonic, often found in shallow, coastal waters (Ref. 94114).
