Rayons mous dorsaux (Total) : 59 - 67; Rayons mous anaux: 40 - 45; Vertèbres: 35. Diagnosis: Dorsal rays 62 (59-67); anal rays 43 (40-45); dorsal and anal rays unbranched; caudal rays 18, the upper 3 and lower 2 unbranched, the remaining rays mostly double branched; pelvic rays 5, unbranched; lateral-line scales 62 (62-72), including 8 (7-10) anterior to upper end of gill opening; lateral line projecting anteriorly toward dorsal edge of upper eye; vertebrae 35 (5 specimens) to 36 (5 specimens); dorsal pterygiophores anterior to fourth neural spine 10-11 (one of nine with 10); body depth 2.3-2.7 in SL; head length (HL) 3.45-4.15 in SL. Remaining measurements just for lectotype: snout 3.05 in HL; preorbital length 3.5 in HL; eye diameter 6.95 in HL; interorbital space 16.5 in HL; tubular anterior nostril short, not reaching cutaneous anterior edge of eye when laid back; maxilla extending posterior to a vertical through middle of lower eye, the upper-jaw length 3.8 in HL; upper end of gill opening on a horizontal passing through ventral edge of lower eye; cirri on front of snout and ventral side of head slender and small; slender cirri along edge of operculum at gill opening on blind side; no cirri detected on dorsal or anal rays; no caudal peduncle depth of caudal-fin base 1.7 in HL; longest dorsal and anal rays 1.6 in HL; caudal fin short, 4.3 in SL; pelvic-fins just reaching base of second anal ray, the ocular-side pelvic fin longer; longest pelvic ray 2.7 in HL; color of ocular side of lectotype tan, the fins pale yellowish; color in formalin as reported: very pale, uniformly and densely dotted with brown, with some larger dots of the same shade of brown, especially on fins (Ref. 57561).
