Longitud en la primera madurez / Tamaño / Peso / Edad
Madurez: Lm 11.0, range 9 - ? cm
Max length : 22.0 cm TL macho / no sexado; (Ref. 26340); common length : 15.0 cm TL macho / no sexado; (Ref. 5217)
Espinas dorsales (total) : 0; Radios blandos dorsales (total) : 13 - 21; Espinas anales: 0; Radios blandos anales: 12 - 23. Tooth plate on tongue and tooth plate behind it (basihyal and basibranchial tooth plates) very narrow, their width about 10 times in combined length, the basihyal tooth plate not bulging in front. Scales thin, loosely attached, easily shed. Tips of anterior dorsal fin rays dark. Reddish or orange spot behind upper end of gill (Ref. 26938). Body slender, with evenly curved upper and lower profiles (Ref. 7251).
