Dorsale stekels (totaal) : 11 - 12; Dorsale zachte stralen (totaal) : 18 - 19; Anale stekels: 2; Anale zachte stralen: 19 - 22. This species is distinguished by the following characters: 18-19 segmented dorsal fin rays;
(19-)20-21(-22) segmented anal fin rays; 3 segmented pelvic fin rays; simple, fusiform supraorbital tentacle, shorter than eye diameter; head with dark pigmentation, with a deep dark area between the central cheeks, the upper orbital rim and the corner of the mouth; dark snout and central three-fifths of the upper lip, other parts light; lower sides of head with dark pigmentation, darkest in the central part of the anterior half; central part of posterior half of lower sides of head with a transversely oval, black blotch, its size about half eye diameter; pelvic fin base black directly behind the opercular membrane; a row of 7 dark, longitudinal, oval blotches with an even darker centre at the sides of body (Ref. 76835).
Facultative air-breathing (Ref. 126274); Adults inhabit reef flats in the intertidal zone and also found in rocky shorelines exposed to strong tide surges (Ref. 90102). 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).

Estimates based on models
Fylogenetische diversiteitsindex (Ref.
82804): PD
50 = 0.5312 [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].
Bayesian length-weight: a=0.01047 (0.00461 - 0.02381), b=2.98 (2.79 - 3.17), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this (Sub)family-body shape (Ref.
93245).
Weerstandsvermogen (Ref.
120179): Hoog, minimale populatieverdubbelingstijd minder dan 15 maanden (Preliminary K or Fecundity.).
Fishing Vulnerability (Ref.
59153): Low vulnerability (10 of 100).
