Espinas dorsales (total) : 10; Radios blandos dorsales (total) : 10; Espinas anales: 3; Radios blandos anales: 10. This species is distinguished by the following characters: body shape oblong to elongate, SL/BDd ratio 2.7-3.1, forehead prominent; caudal fin is large, moderately forked with a subtle middle notch, its lobes slightly convex inside; flanks silvery; anal fin, caudal fin, dorsal fin, and pectoral fin reddish to red; distinctive dark patch above eye; protruding, large eyes (eye diameter reaching 37-40% of head length) (Ref. 131644).
