خارهاي باله پشتي (کل) : 0; شعاع نرم باله پشتي (کل) : 5; خارهاي باله مخرجي: 0; شعاع نرم باله مخرجي: 4. Illicium short, its base above eyes; rays of pectoral and unpaired fins black; white spot on the dorsal and ventral margins of caudal fin base respectively; two pairs of swellings in the distal end of esca, the anterior pair only half as long as the posterior one (Ref. 13608).
