Claves de identificación | Morfología | Morfometría
Espinas dorsales (total) : 9; Radios blandos dorsales (total) : 12; Espinas anales: 3; Radios blandos anales: 12. Juveniles and females blue with a bright yellow region dorsally from mouth to posterior base of dorsal fin; caudal fin with a single dark spot. Adults with a broad blue stripe on upper half of body ending at the beginning of the caudal fin; lower half of body light blue; a diagonal dark band from eye to nape.
