Short description
Morfología | Morfometría
Radios blandos dorsales (total): 7-8; Radios blandos anales: 9 - 11; Vértebra: 31. Diagnosed from its congeners by the absence of the basal process of first gonactinost. Can be differentiated from its congeners by the sexual dimorphism on number of dorsal-fin rays, males with eight rays (very exceptionally seven) and females with seven rays (very exceptionally eight) (Ref. 76852).
