outer posttemporal, outer preopercular rim; opercular spine sharp and extruding; opercular flap small; lower lateral line pores until beginning of anal fin 23; moderately broad dentition patch on vomer with 2-3 rows of teeth and on palatines with 2-4 rows of teeth; otolith with single colliculum; OL:OH = 1.17; OL:TCL = 2-3 (Ref. 125143).
