Short description
Khóa để định loại | Hình thái học | Sinh trắc học
Các tia vây lưng cứng (tổng cộng) : 2; Các vây lưng mềm (tổng cộng) : 7. Body compressed laterally (Ref. 59365). Axillary pore absent; mandibular teeth 23-26; body with small spots; fin spines brown; 9-10 pectoral fin rays; black triangles absent on all rayed fins; eye 31.5-38.1% of snout length; premaxillary toothpad interrupted; secondary branches on medial mandibular barbel absent; occipito-nuchal shield not covered by skin; villous papillae present on skin of body; hindgut chamber present (Ref. 59365).
Found in littoral to benthic zones over shell, sand and mud bottoms, to a maximum depth of 150 m; nothing is known about the diet of this species (Ref. 59365). Fairly rare species; hardly anything known about its biology; probable that they are not brood parasites (Ref. 78218).
