Short description
Identification keys | Morphology | Morphometrics
Dorsal spines (total): 7; Dorsal soft rays (total): 8; Anal spines: 1; Anal soft rays: 8; Vertebrae: 26. This species is distinguished from its congeners by the following set of characters: predorsal scales 8; first dorsal fin without elongate and filamentous spine; unbranched pectoral-fin rays; height of basal membrane between innermost pelvic-fin rays about 23% of length of fifth ray; shallow to moderate interorbital groove; narrow interorbital space and bony width 18-26% of pupil diameter; when fresh and when alive, nape with 1 or 2, and body with 4 broad bright yellow bands (Ref. 91085).

Estimates based on models
Preferred temperature (Ref.
123201): 23.2 - 27.8, mean 27.4 °C (based on 14 cells).
Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref.

50 = 0.5000 [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].
Bayesian length-weight: a=0.00724 (0.00339 - 0.01546), b=3.10 (2.92 - 3.28), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this (Sub)family-body shape (Ref.
