The overall colour is yellowish-red. [4] In live fish there is a pink and gold band at the base of the caudal fin. [3] This species attains a maximum total length of 25 cm (9.8 in). [1]
Sebastiscus albofasciatus is found in the northwestern Pacific Ocean where it occurs in the East China Sea, South China Sea, including Hong Kong, and from southern Japan to eastern Korea. [1] This is a demersal fish found on rocky bottoms, [4] at depths of 30 to 200 m (98 to 656 ft), [1] at greater depths than S. marmoratus. [4]
