The new species is morphologically similar to\n Rogadius mcgroutheri<\/jats:italic>\n Imamura, 2007, known from the Coral Sea off eastern Australia and New Caledonia, the two species sharing most diagnostic characters, including a minute, weakly developed antrorse spine on the preopercle [vs. a long, stout antrorse spine present in\n Rogadius asper<\/jats:italic>\n (Cuvier\n in<\/jats:italic>\n Cuvier & Valenciennes, 1829),\n Rogadius fehlmanni<\/jats:italic>\n Knapp, 2012, and\n Rogadius pristiger<\/jats:italic>\n (Cuvier\n in<\/jats:italic>\n Cuvier & Valenciennes, 1829)]; usually a single preocular spine [vs. 2\u20134 in\n R<\/jats:italic>\n .\n fehlmanni<\/jats:italic>\n and 2\u20135 in\n Rogadius welanderi<\/jats:italic>\n (Schultz\n in<\/jats:italic>\n Schultz et al., 1966)]; no accessory spines along the preocular spine base [vs. present in\n R<\/jats:italic>\n .\n fehlmanni<\/jats:italic>\n and\n Rogadius serratus<\/jats:italic>\n (Cuvier\n in<\/jats:italic>\n Cuvier & Valenciennes, 1829)]; and no longitudinal black band on the caudal fin (vs. present in\n Rogadius patriciae<\/jats:italic>\n Knapp, 1987).
