Chaves de identificação | Morfologia | Morfometria
Espinhos dorsais (total) : 13; Raios dorsais moles (total) : 10; Espinhos anais: 7; Raios anais moles: 9; Vértebras: 23. Ocular band dark chocolate brown to black; a broad white arc running from isthmus and thorax to bases of 2nd - 4th dorsal spines; posterior to white band, body brown or gray dorsally, whitish below. Spines stout, not very pungent and venomous. Preopercular angle 120°; strong overlapping scales cover cheeks, 8 or 9 rows deep below center of orbit; midline of thorax fully scaled. Opening of anterior nostril borne on a very short tube which is taller posteriorly.
