Tamanho / Peso / Idade
Maturity: Lm ?  range ? - ? cm
Max length : 16.0 cm TL macho/indeterminado; (Ref. 122106); peso máx. Publicado: 47.00 g (Ref. 122106)
Espinhos dorsais (total) : 0; Raios dorsais moles (total) : 76 - 85; Espinhos anais: 0; Raios anais moles: 58 - 63. Males with ocular flap on each eye, red-spotted, and with a smooth, indented or scalloped margin; with orbital spines and a rostral spine on ocular side; are darkly pigmented on blind side. Sexual dimorphism in 3 morphometric characters exists: interorbital width, length of pectoral and pelvic fins on ocular side. Gill rakers elongate. Ctenoid scales on ocular side, cycloid on blind side. 2nd pectoral fin ray of ocular side much longer than the rest.
Inhabits muddy and sandy bottoms, occasionally in vicinity of reefs (Ref. 90102).
