Épines dorsales (Total) : 4; Rayons mous dorsaux (Total) : 27; Épines anales: 2; Rayons mous anaux: 17. Lunate caudal fin with elongated lobes; body coloration bluish gray, shading to white posteriorly and unto middle base of caudal fin; thin bluish gray margin and broad, black submarginal band on dorsal fin; anal fin black; caudal fin lobes black with membrane between transparent with pale bluish gray rays. Segmented caudal rays 11; lateral line present (Ref. 54980).

Oviparous. Eggs are demersal and adhesive (Ref. 205), and are attached to the substrate via a filamentous, adhesive pad or pedestal (Ref. 94114). Larvae are planktonic, often found in shallow, coastal waters (Ref. 94114). Minimum depth from Ref. 58018.
