Épines dorsales (Total) : 16 - 17; Rayons mous dorsaux (Total) : 8 - 9; Épines anales: 6; Rayons mous anaux: 6 - 7; Vertèbres: 30. Short pectoral fin length, 17.1-17.9 % of SL (Ref. 47366). Scales: 39-40 lateral line scales, 4-5 tubed scales in the upper part of the lateral line (Ref. 47366).
Habitat characterized by a steeply dropping and craggy rock cliff with terrace-like flats covered by deposits of sand and detritus and with many horizontal and vertical, narrow cracks; compressed body and short pectorals indicate a life in narrow, vertical cracks (Ref. 47366).
