| Diagnosis |
This species is distinguished from its congeners by the following characters: vent is closer to snout tip than caudal fin base (distance between vent and caudal-fin base 52.0-56.2% SL); long caudal peduncle (21.5-23.3% SL), shallow caudal peduncle (9.2-10.5% SL), shallow body (8.9-9.9% SL), short pre-dorsal (42.4-44.4% SL), small eye (10.9-14.4% HL); pre-pectoral 15.1-17.9% SL; lateral line incomplete reaching pelvic- fin origin; lateral side of the body with 33-35 almost uniform bars; caudal fin obliquely truncate (Ref. 130888), |
