Épines dorsales (Total) : 0; Rayons mous dorsaux (Total) : 0; Épines anales: 0; Rayons mous anaux: 5; Vertèbres: 53 - 71. Diagnosed from all its congeners by having four laterosensory pores on the head. Differs further from Typhlobelus ternetzi and T. macromycterus by the absence of eyes; and from T. macromycterus and T. guacamaya by the presence of the four branchiostegal rays (Ref. 56682).
