Short description
पहचान कुंजी | आकृति विज्ञान | मौरफोमैटरिक्स
पृष्ठीय रीढ़ (सम्पूर्ण) : 28; जानवरों की रीड़ का जोड़: 67 - 69. Body with a distinct row of round to diagonal spots along side, which anteriorly are confluent with a well-defined dark streak running posteriorly from the eye, and with a row of asymmetrically placed oblong spots on either side of dorsal fin; pigment present along about two-thirds of length of dorsal and anal elements (Ref. 48399).
