Tamaño / Peso / Age
Madurez: Lm ?  range ? - ? cm
Max length : 19.7 cm SL macho / no sexado; (Ref. 83453)
Radios blandos dorsales (total) : 86 - 95; Radios blandos anales: 66 - 70; Vértebra: 53 - 55. This species is distinguished by the following set of characters: lateral line rather indistinct, ending below dorsal fin ray nos. 27-31 and just behind level of anus, dark vertical fins; otolith with rounded dorsal rim; larger specimens (> 35.0 cm) with pale head and dark brown body and no occipital and interorbital pores (Ref. 83453).
Body shape (shape guide): elongated.
Rare species (Ref. 34024). Reproductive strategy possibly similar to other members of this family featuring oviparity, with oval pelagic eggs floating in a gelatinous mass (Ref. 205). Minimum depth from Ref. 58018.
