Short description
Κλείδες προσδιορισμού | Μορφολογία | Μορφομετρία
Ραχιαίες άκανθες (συνολικά) : 7; Μαλακές ραχιαίες ακτίνες (συνολικά) : 11; Εδρικές άκανθες: 1; Μαλακές εδρικές ακτίνες: 9. This species is distinguished from G. nigricintus by the following characters: presence of pore ß; row g anteriorly ends more or less in front of row o; presence of transverse interorbital row p; snout with 4 median preorbital rows (vs. 3); 37-41 longitudinal scale rows (vs. 29-33); 22-24 predorsal scales (vs. 18); 9 anal fin rays (vs. 10-11); 17 pectoral fin rays (vs. 18-20); body overall light reddish-brown, with or without faint brown vertical bands (vs. dark brown bars contrasting strongly with light ground on flanks, fins, eyes, head and lips) (Ref. 75175).
Body shape (shape guide): fusiform / normal; Cross section: oval.
Types were collected between 15 and 25 m depth, but otherwise observed at entrances of small caves between 20 and 40 m depth. Small individuals (about 4 cm SL) were seen at Rolas Island in 20 m depth hovering upside down; individuals of approximately twice this size were reported in small caves between 35 to 40 m depth at Diogo Vaz (Ref. 75175).
