Spine dorsali (totale) : 7; Raggi dorsali molli (totale) : 8 - 9; Spine anali: 1; Raggi anali molli: 8 - 9. Characterized by light tan body color with row of five horizontally elongate black spots along middle of side; presence of row of smaller dark spots along lower side of body; nape, back and upper caudal peduncle with six brown saddles; joined pelvic fins, relatively long , extends beyond anal fin; rounded caudal fin; longitudinal scale series 23-25; absence of scales on nape, cheek, opercle, breast and anterior body; numerous, elongate, fleshy barbels and flaps on head; depth of body 5.6-6.3 in SL (Ref. 90102).
Inhabits sand-rubble bottoms, usually in surge channels or on exposed outer edge of reefs in 1-15 m (Ref. 90102). Burrows in sand adjacent to coral or rock (Ref. 2798).
