Short description Morfología | Morfometría

Espinas dorsales (total): 10; Radios blandos dorsales (total): 14; Espinas anales 3; Radios blandos anales: 8. Preopercular notch and knob weak. Scale rows on back rising obliquely above lateral line. Mainly scarlet red, silvery on lower sides and belly; fins are yellowish to orange. A prominent black blotch is at the base and in axil of pectoral fins.

Biología     Glosario (por ej. epibenthic)
