Color. Light yellow spots on dark brown base color in life (Figure 3). Brownish-gray base color with small white spots in 70% ethanol. Gray base color mostly uniform, with slightly paler saddle areas at origin of dorsal fin, in middle area of dorsal fin, between dorsal fin and adipose fin, and posterior to adipose fin extending onto dorsal procurrent caudal fin rays. Light spots evenly-sized across body, approximately size of nasal aperture, and smaller in diameter than the length of lateral plates. Light spots relatively evenly spaced and present on all plated regions of body, usually with minimum interspot distance 1.0-1.6 times spot diameter. 21 spots in horizontal series from snout tip to end of caudal peduncle, 23 spots in series along sagittal plane from snout tip to dorsal procurrent caudal fin rays. Dark background color and evenly spaced small white spots also on fin spines and rays; fin-ray membranes hyaline but dusky with sparse melanophores. Six white spots on pectoral-fin spine, decreasing gradually in number to two to three on shortest fin rays. Four to five white spots on pelvic-fin spine, decreasing in number to three spots on shortest fin rays. Spots on dorsal-fin spine and rays in rows roughly parallel to slope of dorsal surface of body between dorsal-fin origin and insertion. Five to six spots on dorsal-fin spine and anterior rays, decreasing in number to three on last dorsal-fin rays. Posterior margin of dorsal fin darker gray than rest of the dorsal fin. Adipose-fin spine with a single spot. Adipose-fin membrane with two small spots. Adipose-fin membrane hyaline, more transparent
