وصف مختصر
مفاتيح التعريف | الوصف الخارجي | قياسات المظهر الخارجي
الأشواك الظهرية (المجموع) : 1 - 2; الأشعة الظهرية الناعمة (المجموع) : 6 - 7; شوكة شرجية: 0; أشعه شرجية لينه: 7 - 10; فقرات: 34 - 39. Diagnosis: This species is distinguished from most of the other species by its more slender form, with standard length larger than 8 times body depth, by the short humeral process, less than 20% of the lateral head length and by the possession of only two or three barbs on the pectoral-fin spines (Ref. 86935). It is distinguished from Zaireichthys mandevillei by the large eye, more than one sixth of the head length, vs. 12 times in head length (Ref. 86935).
