Short description
Chiavi di identificazione | Morfologia | Morfometria
Spine dorsali (totale) : 7; Raggi dorsali molli (totale) : 8 - 9; Spine anali: 1; Raggi anali molli: 8 - 9. Diagnosis: Eleotris soaresi is distinguished by second, third and fourth suborbital free neuromast rows on cheek extending ventrally past horizontal row 'd' ('2.3.4' pattern), row 'os' connected with row 'oi' at ventro-posterior margin of operculum ('closed' pattern); 17-18 pectoral fin rays; 50-56 scales in lateral series, and 12-13 scales in zigzag series (Ref. 123271). Eleotris soaresi differs from the other species of Indian Ocean with a '2.3.4' pattern in having fewer scales in lateral series, 50-56 vs. 59-64, and in zigzag series, 12-13 vs. 13-15; moreover, it differs from E. valadei in having fewer scales in transverse forward series, 22-24 vs. 27-30, and predorsal series, 39-43 vs. 45-50, and from E. diamsoi in having 17-18 pectoral fin rays vs. 16 (Ref. 123271).
