Issue
New genus combination, description and illustration of a specimen (not type) with a short note on the holotype in Bleeker (1864:11, pl. 1 fig. 3, pl. 3 fig. 2); van der Stigchel (1946:164) also gives a redescription of species based on same two specimens; see Boeseman (1972:305) for identification of the holotype and discussion on type locality.

Estimates based on models
Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref.
82804): PD
50 = 0.5000 [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].
Bayesian length-weight: a=0.01318 (0.00580 - 0.02997), b=2.98 (2.80 - 3.16), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this Genus-body shape (Ref.
93245).
Fishing Vulnerability (Ref.
59153): Low vulnerability (10 of 100).
