Descrição breve
Chaves de identificação | Morfologia | Morfometria
Espinhos dorsais (total) : 0; Raios dorsais moles (total) : 6 - 8; Espinhos anais: 0; Raios anais moles: 12 - 14. Diagnosis: This species is distinguished from congeners by the open pre-opercular neuromast system, beginning of the dorsal fin completely behind the anal fin and male and female colouration, without dark crossbars (Ref. 57261).
