Short description
पहचान कुंजी | आकृति विज्ञान | मौरफोमैटरिक्स
पृष्ठीय रीढ़ (सम्पूर्ण) : 17 - 18; पृष्ठीय सौफट रेज़ (सम्पूर्ण) : 8 - 9; गुदा कांटा: 3; ऐनल सौफट रेज़: 7 - 8. This species is distinguished by the following characters: with a large number of small scales on the nape and chest region, an abrupt transition from large flank scales to small chest scales; a true ocelli; basic melanin pattern consisting of 5-7 bars (5 or fewer beneath dorsal fin) and two horizontal stripes; juveniles with the horizontal stripes only vaguely or not at all, those that lack the horizontal elements has shallower body depth 30.4-33.4%SL; mature individuals with a mid-lateral and a dorso-lateral stripe (Ref. 132456).
Cross section: compressed.
Depth assumed based on habitat, where species was found in less than 15 meters. Maximum size based on original description.
