Short description
Claves de identificación | Morfología | Morfometría
Espinas dorsales (total) : 6 - 7; Radios blandos dorsales (total) : 9; Espinas anales: 1; Radios blandos anales: 8. This species is distinguished by the following characters: fewer second dorsal and anal-fin rays than other species; a spotted head and body; distinctive head shape, when viewed dorsally, it is narrow and compressed anterior to the eyes, broadening posteriorly due to
the thick cheek muscles; males typically with a large mouth extending beyond the end
of the eye (Ref. 87125).
Occurs in reefs and rock outcrops surrounded by sand (Ref. 11482). Minimum depth from Ref. 58018.
