Épines dorsales (Total) : 15 - 17; Rayons mous dorsaux (Total) : 7 - 9; Épines anales: 5 - 6; Rayons mous anaux: 6 - 7; Vertèbres: 26. Differs from all species of the genus by the following combination of characters: 5-6 anal-fin spines; 6-7 branched anal-fin rays; caudal peduncle length 8.9-11.8% of SL; lips not thickened; in preserved specimens lateral band formed by two series of scales, each scale bears a dark spot in the centrum, between both scales there is a light narrow area; dorsal, anal and caudal fins, and opercle without dark spots (Ref. 57794).
