Short description
Chiavi di identificazione | Morfologia | Morfometria
Raggi dorsali molli (totale) : 3; Raggi anali molli: 3. Metamorphosed females distinguished by the following characteristics: egg shaped escal bulb, lacking distal appendages, bearing three pairs of stout filaments on posterolateral surface of proximal half of bulb, median pair distally compressed and fringed; short barbel (about 20% SL), undivided, with distal series of white tubercles; small and blunt frontal spines; parasitic male with pointed sphenotic spines; olfactory lamellae 8; caudal peduncle with distinct concentration of subdermal pigment (Ref. 86949).
