Short description
Claves de identificación | Morfología | Morfometría
Espinas dorsales (total) : 7; Radios blandos dorsales (total) : 10 - 11; Espinas anales: 9 - 11. Diagnosis: Characterized by having large spots on the head and body; moderate to well-developed interorbital and postorbital trenches; scales on the pectoral and pelvic fin bases, except on cheeks, opercles, or midline of the nape; a posterior nostril which is adnate to the eye; a fifth pelvic fin ray that is 80-9% of the fourth and is branched dichotomously twice (Ref. 57687).
