Diagnostic features include: segmented dorsal and anal rays 7; pectoral rays 17-18; lateral scales 27-28; transverse scales 7; predorsal scales 13-18, extending to middleof interorbital; head and body scales entirely ctenoid, including breast, belly, prepelvic area, pectoral-fin base, predorsal, cheek, and opercle; cheek and opercle scales extend ventrally to lower margin; head pores absent; transverse papillae pattern on head, some rows raised, forming ridges; head, body, and fins generally red to reddish brown, outer edge of dorsal and anal fins with frost-like, white speckling.
