[391.] Adult males, three and a half inches long, want the orbital tentacles. The 
ground-colour of the lower half of the body is pearly ; the body is crossed by seven or 
eight darker bands, the four anterior of which are broken up into a pair of bands each. 
The whole body, bands as well as interspaces, is covered with small dark-brown dots. 
The first dorsal is uniform blackish, the second dorsal and caudal are dotted with brown 
like the body, and the anal has one or two series of brown, white-edged dots along the 
middle. 
[385.] The adult female, four and a half inches long, has a slightly fringed orbital 
tentacle as long as the eye. The body is marked with irregular pairs of dark-brown 
streaks and with a few scattered brown spots ; the dots on the dorsal fins are confluent 
into oblique lines ; the caudal and anal are immaculate. 
[62.] Young females, one and a half to two and a half inches long, have cross bands 
on the body, but the fins are immaculate.

As only one specimen, two and a half inches long, exists in this collection, it is 
somewhat doubtful whether the determination is correct.
