Trigonectes rubromarginatus Costa 1990

Distinguished from other species of the genus, except T. strigabundus, by having straight mouth cleft. Differs from T. strigabundus and all other species of the genus by the elongated pelvic fin of the males, whose tip is reaching to the base of 11th to 15th anal rays and the presence of a bright red stripe along the ventral margin of the male caudal fin. Seems to differ from T. strigabundus by having a larger size (Ref. 26656).

Dorsal soft rays (total): 10 - 14; Analsoft rays: 16 - 18

Bottom spawner, 8 months incubation (Ref. 27139).
