Identification keys | Morphology | Morphometrics
Dorsal spines (total): 10; Dorsal soft rays (total): 15; Anal spines: 3; Anal soft rays: 7. This species is distinguished by the following set of characters: D X,15; pored lateral-line scales 34; gill rakers 8 + 23 = 31; body depth 42.6-44.7% of SL; head length 39.5-41.4% SL; pectoral-fin length 32.4-33.1% SL. Colouration: with a poorly defined broad yellow band from anterior profile of head to middle of body, the band gradually becoming red around middle of body and ending at caudal-fin base; absence of vertical bands or lines on body; pelvic fins
yellow; caudal fin yellowish with distinct red spots scattered centrally; females with a large dark red blotch posteriorly on spinous portion of dorsal fin (Ref. 116604).
