Rainfall in much of the nortwestern Sonora averages less than 150 mm a year..

Dorsale zachte stralen (totaal) : 7 - 8; Anale zachte stralen: 7 - 8. Differs morphometrically from G. purpurea in having on average a shallower caudal peduncle, shorter mean distance from origin of pectoral fin to origin of pelvic fin and longer upper jaw. Differs from G. ditaenia in its shorter caudal peduncle and longer post-orbital mean lengths and an average of 57 vs. 68 scales in the lateral line.
