Bony part of the illicium with numerous crossbands and approximately twice as long as the 2nd dorsal spine. Coloration is highly variable, ranging from cream to yellow, brown, or black with scattered dark circular spots and saddles or blotches ranging from white to pink, rust-red, or red. Heavily spotted individuals resemble A. pictus. Usually has red or orange margins on all fins and the first band across the body diverts to the posterior edge of the eye which distinguishes it from A. pictus (Ref. 48635).Description: Characterized by having unbranched pelvic rays except posterior most; esca with eye spot and resembling a small fish; curved second dorsal spine with small membrane posteriorly; curved third dorsal spine, posterior membrane not reaching dorsal fin; overall wart-like protuberances (Ref. 90102).
