Short description
Bestämningsnycklar | Morfologi | Morfometri
Taggstrålar i ryggfenan (totalt) : 0; Mjukstrålar i ryggfenan (totalt) : 18 - 24; Taggstrålar i analfenan: 0; Mjukstrålar i analfenan: 23 - 30; Ryggkotor: 27 - 30. Two apomorphic color patterns, body bright gray with dark gray to black stripes in males (versus light gray or no stripes; stripes narrower than interspaces) and a vertically paired black blotch on caudal peduncle of juveniles and females (versus small spots irregularly arranged, or a single round dorsally positioned spot, or no spots on caudal peduncle). Scales on longitudinal series 26-28, supraorbital neuromasts 16-19, pharyngobranchial teeth 2-5. Dorsal fin origin posterior to anal fin origin in females. Caudal fin rounded (fin rays 21-22).
Bottom spawner, 3-5 months incubation. Is difficult to maintain in aquarium (Ref. 27139).
