背棘 (总数) : 17 - 18; 背的软条 (总数) : 10 - 11; 臀棘: 3; 臀鳍软条: 9 - 10; 脊椎骨: 32. Diagnosis: distinguished by the prominence of the posterior part of the mid-lateral and the anterior part of the dorsolateral stripes; further distinguished from P. spilonotus by the lower number of gill rakers (Ref. 267).
鉴别: 借着后面的部份的突起区别了那侧面中央的与背外侧斑纹的较前端; 进一步与鳃耙的下面数字的 P. spilonotus 区分了。 (参考文献 267)
