Spine dorsali (totale) : 9; Raggi dorsali molli (totale) : 11 - 12; Spine anali: 0; Raggi anali molli: 11 - 12. Body mottled with brown and white blotches above, whitish below; back crossed by 4-5 dark bands which may be indistinct (Ref. 4315). Lips with a row of small fleshy papillae. Base of lower opercular spine concealed by scales. Dorsal fin rays usually 11. Iris lappet bearing short branches with bifurcate tips.
