Short description
Morfologia | Morfometria
Raggi dorsali molli (totale): 70-79; Raggi anali molli: 55 - 64; Vertebre: 40 - 43. This species is characterized by the following: pectoral fins long (16.7-20.3% SL); soft interorbital broad (7-9.4%SL); pectoral distance long (33.2-37.4%SL); elongate neural spines 4; rows of large scales on lower cheeks 3; outer pseudoclasper a broad, rounded lobe; fleshy isthmus between pseudoclaspers wide; anterior inner pseudoclasper submerged in pocket of isthmus; otolith with fused colliculi (Ref. 55786).
