Dorsale stekels (totaal) : 0; Dorsale zachte stralen (totaal) : 11; Anale stekels: 0; Anale zachte stralen: 9 - 11; Wervels: 37. Flexible, unbranched first ray and ten branched rays on its dorsal fin; dorsal fin situated relatively far posteriorly; pterygiophore of anterior dorsal fin ray articulating with neural spine of tenth vertebra; blade like neural spines of vertebrae five through nine extend dorsally, diverging at their dorsal ends to form a double row of ossifications just ventral to skin between supraoccipital and dorsal fin origin; a slender supraneural at posterior end of this v-shaped predorsal trough has attached muscles extending anteriorly between bifid neural spines to supraoccipital; maxillary barbel very long , reaching posteriorly beyond anal fin base. Distal portions of dorsal, adipose and anal fins, and most part of caudal fin almost unpigmented.

Estimates based on models
Fylogenetische diversiteitsindex (Ref.

50 = 0.5020 [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].
Bayesian length-weight: a=0.00776 (0.00362 - 0.01664), b=2.98 (2.80 - 3.16), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this (Sub)family-body shape (Ref.
