Short description Bestämningsnycklar | Morfologi | Morfometri

Taggstrålar i ryggfenan (totalt) : 0; Mjukstrålar i ryggfenan (totalt) : 10 - 11; Taggstrålar i analfenan: 0; Mjukstrålar i analfenan: 10 - 11; Ryggkotor: 42 - 46. Can be distinguished from C. beani by differences in body pigmentation, number of vertebrae, relative least depth of caudal peduncle, the alignment of the articulation between the sixth infraorbital and supraorbital, and number of lateral line scales.
