Dorsale stekels (totaal) : 0; Dorsale zachte stralen (totaal) : 12 - 18; Anale stekels: 0; Anale zachte stralen: 16 - 27. Body moderately deep, belly sharply keeled, with 9 to 12 + 7 to 9 scutes. Snout blunt, pre-maxillae short and toothless, but prominent teeth in lower jaw; second supra-maxilla short, a little over half length of maxilla blade.
