Descrição breve
Chaves de identificação | Morfologia | Morfometria
Espinhos dorsais (total) : 0; Raios dorsais moles (total) : 0; Espinhos anais: 0; Raios anais moles: 5; Vértebras: 51 - 53. Diagnosed from all congeners by the presence of three branchiostegal rays, posterior naris absent and the lack of pleural ribs. Differs further from both Typhlobelus ternetzi and T. macromycterus by the absence of eyes, and further distinguished from T. macromycterus by the presence of the nine caudal fin rays and five anal-fin rays and differs further from T. lundbergi by the presence of three laterosensory canal pores (Ref. 56682).
