Clés d'identification | Morphologie | Morphométrie
Épines dorsales (Total) : 16 - 17; Rayons mous dorsaux (Total) : 8 - 10; Épines anales: 3; Rayons mous anaux: 8. No acutely sloped ethmo-vomerine block. Lower jaw parallel to a line from the tip of the snout to the hypural plate. Compared to P. williamsi, head depth is smaller (88.7-99.4% SL vs. 102%); eyes larger, vertical eye diameter 27.3-32.2% HL vs. 25.5%; lesser body depth (Ref. 41512).
