Dorsale zachte stralen (totaal) : 69 - 80; Anale stekels: 0 - 2; Anale zachte stralen: 70 - 84; Wervels: 45 - 49. This species is characterized by the following: HL 6.3-8.4 in SL; preopercle with 5 blunt spines, the longest at angle. Colouration: head and body orange-pink with double series of yellow spots (smaller than pupil) on the sides; dorsal fin yellow-orange, anal fin yellow and median fins with narrow black margins; paired fins yellow with pink rays (Ref. 127963).
