A female specimen (1.42 cm SL) contained ca. 20 mature eggs (ca. 10 within each ovary) of ca. 0.3-0.@ mm diameter. The largest eggs in each ovary exhibited a dark orange cap that may represent an 'attachment apparatus' at the animal pole as described from the eggs of three species of European gobiesocid (Ref. 120657).

Live colour pattern, including body background golden-yellow to olive-brown, a variable number of irregularly shaped light to dark brown markings along dorsal midline, presence of a series of light to dark brown elongate lateral markingsforming an incomplete or complete horizontal stripe (Ref. 120657).
