This species is moderately elongate (depth 33.1-37.6%, head length 33.4-37.8% of SL); D XV-XVI,5-6; A III,5.i or IV,5-6 (usually 4 spines); gill rakers 1-2; lateral line rudimentary; a longitudinal dark lateral band, 2 (or 3) series of spots longitudinally on abdominal side, no midventral stripe; dorsal and caudal fin not modified in males up 2.6 cm with last dorsal spine length 11.7-15.5% of SL (Ref. 86503).
Eggs are deposited on the ceiling of caves (Ref. 47893).
