Short description
Bestämningsnycklar | Morfologi | Morfometri
Mjukstrålar i ryggfenan (totalt) : 7 - 8; Mjukstrålar i analfenan: 9 - 11; Ryggkotor: 31. Diagnosed from its congeners by the absence of the basal process of first gonactinost. Can be differentiated from its congeners by the sexual dimorphism on number of dorsal-fin rays, males with eight rays (very exceptionally seven) and females with seven rays (very exceptionally eight) (Ref. 76852).
