Taggstrålar i ryggfenan (totalt) : 10; Mjukstrålar i ryggfenan (totalt) : 13; Taggstrålar i analfenan: 3; Mjukstrålar i analfenan: 8. Appears bright yellow underwater (Ref. 48635). Dorsal profile of head gently sloped. Preorbital bone narrower than eye diameter. Preopercular notch and knob poorly developed. Scale rows on back rising obliquely above lateral line. Back and sides reddish, grading to pink; the ventral portion of the head and body white; a series of faint, yellow horizontal lines on the sides; fins whitish or yellow.
