Espinhos dorsais (total) : 11; Raios dorsais (total) : 12 - 14; Espinhos anais: 4; Raios anais : 9. Body striped with red, yellow and silver; often anterior third of body more yellow than remainder. Third anal ray spine very long and stout (Ref. 26938). Body slender, spiny dorsal fin with broad yellow band along middle and lower sides (Ref. 37108).
