Colouration: body entirely pale pink or yellow with narrow dark stripe centrally, no oblique alternating dark and light stripes; pectoral fin inner surface is largely bright yellow (whitish in preserved specimens), basally with dark stripes along rays, distal part largely yellow (whitish) when fresh (Ref. 128010).
