Gill rakers on the first arch are broader at the proximal end, usually with ridged internal edges (western Atlantic individuals with 26-30, Japanese specimens with 24-32, and Hawaiian Ridge specimens with 30-32). Teeth are developed on the central portion of the tongue but not on its edges (Ref. 31632).
