Radios blandos dorsales (total) : 24; Radios blandos anales: 34; Vértebra: 67. A single, very long terminal bulb, its length more than twice its greatest width, constricted at its midlength, with a short, very slender terminal projection included in a broad distal extension of the outer covering membrane of the bulb. Bulb and projection combined 3.2% SL. Barbel short, 42.5% SL. Axis of stem unpigmented. External chevron-shaped or roundish striated areas unpigmented, becoming almost contiguous distally. No inclusions in stem. Middorsal paired spots between occiput and dorsal-fin origin 9 (Ref. 11333).
