Adult males with marked sexual dimorphism of anal fin, more rounded than in females where fin is more concave distally (Ref. 28013). Coloration: prominent humeral spot on third post-opercular scale; distinct longitudinal band from middle of rayed dorsal fin to adipose fin (situated dorsal to median rays of caudal fin); band is wider anteriorly than posteriorly, anteriorly it is about 1 scale wide; in preserved material fins generally greyish; in life Ref. 41597 writes: “fins sometimes yellow, sometimes orange; adipose fin sometimes bright red” (Ref. 80290).
