Descripción breve
Claves de identificación | Morfología | Morfometría
Espinas dorsales (total) : 0; Radios blandos dorsales (total) : 12 - 13; Espinas anales: 0; Radios blandos anales: 7 - 8. Lower jaw falls inside upper jaw by at least the thickness of the lower lip; lower and upper lip well developed; head length less than 3.5 times in standard length; body depth at least 1.2 times in head length; no clear nuchal hump; eye diameter at least 2 times in snout length.
Body shape (shape guide): elongated.
The species has a preference for rocky substrates, but also lives over sandy and muddy parts, especially in the shore area; absent from water deeper than 6 m; mainly a piscivore, but also eats small amounts of insects (Ref. 35835).
