Short description
Bestämningsnycklar | Morfologi | Morfometri
Taggstrålar i ryggfenan (totalt) : 20; Mjukstrålar i ryggfenan (totalt) : 12 - 13; Taggstrålar i analfenan: 2; Mjukstrålar i analfenan: 20 - 22. This species is distinguished from its southwestern Atlantic congeners by the following set of characters: body elongated, its depth 19-22 % SL (vs. 23-25 % SL in M. triangulatus and 24-28 % SL in M. delalandei); lateral line scales typically 62-66 (vs. 50-53 in M. triangulatus and 51-53 in M. delalandei); presence of two longitudinal rows of dark brown spots aligned on sides of body (vs presence of dark, reverse-triangle shaped bars in M. triangulatus and presence somewhat irregular dark bars in M. delalandei) (Ref. 85053).
Occurs in shallow rocky reefs (Ref. 85053).
