Measurements refer to mean egg capsule diameter and mean total length of larvae. chromatophores were evident above the pectoral fin and along the top of the head, the cleithrum, and the preopercle at the base of each spine (Fig. 4D). Pectoral fins were elongating on the dorsal side and an anlage of the dorsal spines was developing along the dorsal line of the tail (Fig. 5A). The caudal fin rays were distinctly bifurcate. Five spines were now evident along the operculum. Two spines were present on each side of the head above and joined to the auditory vesicles. The chromatophores along the the stomach and intestine were almost continuous with fewer toward the vent. Large stellate chromatophores were more prominent on the head with dark vertical barring appearing posterior to the auditory vesicles. The dorsal head spine appeared as two distinct spines on each side (Fig. 5B). The anal fin rays were developing with stellate chromatophores located along the ventral line of the tail. The ventral fin was now evident and the pectoral fin was.
