(maximum size > 4 cm (vs. the S. sapphirinus group) and pectoral-fin rays 15 (vs. 13-14); differs from other species of the S. elegans group by having wider interorbital width, males with occipital region almost naked, 7-8 oval bands or a black longitudinal band on lower body, with dorsal, anal, and caudal fins brown with white spots in males, a short red or orange line on posterior upper edge of caudal fin, pectoral fins with 3-8 rows of black and white spots in males and with one to two rows in females (Ref. 131349).
