Description. Frequency distributions of fin-rays and lateral-line pores are given in Table 1. The area in front of the pelvic fins, most of the isthmus and the branchiostegal membranes are unpigmented or have only a light sprinkling of melanophores. Young and juveniles have the anterior back and sides prominently spotted; this spotting disappearing in specimens longer than 20 mm. Dorsal fin narrowly edged with red in adults. Anal papilla not enlarged in males. The lateral and supratemporal canals consist of 5 pores each, the supratemporal of 3 pores. These are arranged as described for

Preopercle with 3-4 spines, the upper one best developed and slightly curving dorsally, the next 2 smaller and projecting ventrally. A fourth spine, if present, is usually a small bony protuberance. Dentition well developed, the palatine tooth patches abutting the vomer and distinctly longer than the greatest dimension of the vomer. Premaxillary and dentary teeth well developed, depressible, and not joined medially. Body prickling variable but always with at least a patch of prickles mesial to the pectoral fin.</paragraph>
