Morfologia | Morfometria
Espinhos dorsais (total): 12; Raios dorsais moles (total): 14-15; Espinhos anais 3; Raios anais moles: 8. Mostly yellow, paler below. Scales below lateral line in oblique rows and much larger than those above lateral line. No other grunt has enlarged scales below the lateral line (Ref. 26938).
