Short description Bestämningsnycklar | Morfologi | Morfometri

Taggstrålar i ryggfenan (totalt) : 8; Mjukstrålar i ryggfenan (totalt) : 26 - 29; Taggstrålar i analfenan: 3; Mjukstrålar i analfenan: 24 - 26. Lower lip papillate posteriorly. Gill rakers on anterior row 26-29, on posterior row 34-37. Has brilliant blue spots covering the head, body, and pectoral fins and blue longitudinal pinstripes on the dorsal, anal and caudal fins (Ref 1602). Anterior dorsal soft rays longer than posterior (Ref 42056).
