Etymology: Symphurus: Greek, syn, symphysis = grown together + Greek, oura = tail (Ref. 45335); polylepis: Name from Greek 'poly' meaning many, and 'lepis' for scale, referring to the greater number of longitudinal scale rows compared with that of similar species of shallow-water tonguefishes.

Colouration: ocular side uniformly yellow to light-brown, blind side uniformly white, both sides with obvious dermal spots on bases of anteriormost dorsal- and anal-fin rays, and peritoneum bluish-black (Ref. 126065).
Cross section: flattened.
More accurate information about geographic distribution, bathymetric distribution and substrata where this species is found needed to better understand the ecology, distribution and life history of this species (Ref. 126065).
