Etymology: Gymnocranius: Greek, gymnos = naked + Greek, kranion = skull (Ref. 45335).
Eponymy: Audley Raymond Jones was a friend of the author and an amateur ichthyologist. Ogilby wrote: “…Named after my friend Audley Raymond Jones, to whom I am indebted for much interesting information regarding the habits of our fishes.” (Ref. 128868), visit book page.

Tamanho / Peso / Idade
Maturidade: Lm ? range ? - ? cm
Max length : 40.0 cm TL macho/indeterminado; (Ref. 2295); common length : 35.0 cm TL macho/indeterminado; (Ref. 2295)
Espinhos dorsais (total) : 10; Raios dorsais moles (total) : 10; Espinhos anais: 3; Raios anais moles: 9 - 10. Inner surface of pectoral fin without scales. Overall color is silver or whitish, often light brown or olive on upper sides. Each scale on sides has a brown spot forming longitudinal rows. Fins are uniformly clear to slightly yellowish. Fresh specimen have scattered brown flecks on sides. A blackish bar that runs through the eye may also be evident.
Body shape (shape guide): fusiform / normal; Cross section: oval.
Generally solitary over sand or rubble areas adjacent to reefs . Feeds mainly on benthic invertebrates. Sometimes has a distasteful iodine flavor; however, untainted fish are good to eat.
