Grootte / Gewicht / Leeftijd
Maturity: Lm ?  range ? - ? cm
Max length : 40.5 cm SL mannelijk / geslacht onbekend; (Ref. 2687)
Dorsale stekels (totaal) : 0; Dorsale zachte stralen (totaal) : 94 - 96; Anale stekels: 0; Anale zachte stralen: 71 - 73; Wervels: 51 - 52. Ontogenetic change in color pattern occurs; small individuals with horizontal bands on body; bands assuming a vermiculate pattern on medium-sized fishes; becoming blotched or slightly vermiculate in large specimens. 3-4 developed gill rakers. Small body scales arranged in 130-145 regular rows along the side; base of pectorals with scales, none on bases of vertical fins. Dense, small, fleshy papillae on lips. Supraorbital pores 2; suborbital 5 ?; lateral 1; preoperculomandibular 8; temporal 1. Pyloric caeca numerous, about 45.
A benthic species found on the continental shelf and slope (Ref. 75154). Uncommon species (Ref. 34024). Reproductive strategy possibly similar to other members of this family featuring oviparity, with oval pelagic eggs floating in a gelatinous mass (Ref. 205).
