Short description Claves de identificación | Morfología | Morfometría

Espinas dorsales (total) : 0; Radios blandos dorsales (total) : 0; Espinas anales: 0; Radios blandos anales: 0; Vértebra: 134 - 145. Chestnut brown species that becomes darker posteriorly. Differs from the uniformly brown G. pindae by lacking the fine serrations on the posterior edges of the lower jaw teeth and by having a mouth that may not quite close completely.

Biología     Glosario (por ej. epibenthic)
