Dorsale stekels (totaal) : 9; Dorsale zachte stralen (totaal) : 19; Anale stekels: 2; Anale zachte stralen: 19; Wervels: 32. This species is distinguished by the following: D IX, 19; gill opening extending ventrally to opposite 5th or 6th dorsalmost pectoral-fin ray; 32 total vertebrae (Ref. 89959); cirri associated with most of (probably all) the dentary pores and several of the preopercular pores (Ref. 117352).
Body shape (shape guide): elongated; Cross section: oval.
The species' slender body is well-suited for using as shelter abandoned calcareous polychaete tube, especially if protective cover is scarce. The type locality is mostly sand, broken shells and rubble with occasional seagrass beds (Ref. 89959). This species was also found to occupy empty shells of scaphopod mollusc Dentalium (Ref. 117352).
