Short description
पहचान कुंजी | आकृति विज्ञान | मौरफोमैटरिक्स
पृष्ठीय रीढ़ (सम्पूर्ण) : 0; पृष्ठीय सौफट रेज़ (सम्पूर्ण) : 0; गुदा कांटा: 0; ऐनल सौफट रेज़: 4 - 5; जानवरों की रीड़ का जोड़: 41. Diagnosed from its congeners by having diminutive eyes, posterior naris absent, presence of a triangular skin flap at mouth corner, dorsal and ventral fin fold deep and extending forward on the head to a vertical through tip of pectoral fin. Differs from Pygidianops magoi by
the presence of six laterosensory pores on head, presence of pectoral and anal fins, presence of 12-13 caudal fin rays associated with the caudal plate (Ref. 56682).
