Short description
Morfologi | Morfometri
Taggstrålar i ryggfenan (totalt): 3; Mjukstrålar i ryggfenan (totalt): 10-11; Taggstrålar i analfenan 3; Mjukstrålar i analfenan: 9 - 10; Ryggkotor: 26. This species is distinguished by the following characters: 20-24 (modally 22) gill rakers; gently curved lateral profile of nape and dorsal surface of head, nearly horizontal in front of dorsal-fin origin, almost straight between eyes; broadly rounded tip of snout; 2.7-2.9 times in SL, depth of head at vertical through upper end of gill opening; snout length is 1.5-2.6 times in eye diameter; the inner row of teeth on premaxilla is noticeably longer than others; relatively short and deep caudal peduncle, depth 0. 9-1.2 in length; dorsal and anal fins are relatively low, third segmented dorsal-fin ray 3.8-4.6 times in SL, first anal-fin ray 5.6-8.2 times in SL; body color greenish brown on back, silvery below; fins almost uniformly pink, though slightly dusky tips to caudal-fin lobes lasting in recently preserved large specimens (Ref. 76814).
