Descrição breve Chaves de identificação | Morfologia | Morfometria

Espinhos dorsais (total) : 13; Raios dorsais moles (total) : 7; Espinhos anais: 3; Raios anais moles: 10. Body scales edged with blue giving sides uneven banded appearance. No small prominent black spot on side. A horizontally elongate dusky blotch present below centre of fin in some specimens. Head with many small orange spots on cheek, forehead crossed by 4 or 5 sets of alternating blue and orange stripes. Second prominent anterior canine in lower jaw distinctly smaller than first in adults, directed dorsolaterally and curved slightly posteriorly. 1 to 3 scales on subopercle. (Ref 9823)
