The island is directly over the Galápagos hotspot, recently has an active volcano, exceptionally dry, and has extensive local upwelling of colder deep water which occurs seasonally in the area. The unusual combination of colder water and particularly light erosion sedimentation due to low precipitation and rocky shores create a distinctive habitat. The Tagus Cove itself is a breached tuff cone and is characterized by coarse black sands (Ref. 93094). Victor, B.C. and G.M.

It is distinguished from its congeners by the low fin-ray counts, D 70-75 A 51-58; low numbers of slender gill rakers, 4-7+8-10 (usually 6+9 or 6+10); a narrow body with maximum body width in adults 39-45% SL; low numbers of pored lateral line scales, 41-42; vertebrae 10+25; firmly attached (non-deciduous) scales (Ref. 93094).
