Ραχιαίες άκανθες (συνολικά) : 6 - 8; Μαλακές ραχιαίες ακτίνες (συνολικά) : 7 - 9; Εδρικές άκανθες: 1; Μαλακές εδρικές ακτίνες: 7 - 9; Σπόνδυλοι: 30 - 32. Anterior oculoscapular and preopercular head canals present; scales mostly restricted to axillary patch, but with scattered scales along lateral midline of caudal peduncle. Males with numerous thin vertical striae on flank.
