Maturity: Lm ?  range ? - ? cm
Max length : 30.0 cm SL macho / no sexado; (Ref. 6205)
Espinas dorsales (total) : 13 - 14; Radios blandos dorsales (total) : 20 - 22; Espinas anales: 2; Radios blandos anales: 22 - 24; Vértebra: 39 - 40. Swim bladder with two posterior extensions. Body is pale brown to dull brown above, lighter below; a faint mid-lateral stripe usually present; dorsal fins dusky terminally with five or six rows of dusky spots on second dorsal fin membranes, other fins hyaline.
