	<dc:description>Body black, elongate and slender; depth 5-8% SL.  Long, tapering protrusible snout.  Slender barbel stem and two terminal bulbs.  Barbel stem has little or no external pigment (Ref. 37039).  Two terminal bulbs separated by a short interspace, less than half to 1.5 the length of distal bulb.  Barbel length increasing to 70-91% SL in specimens 10.5-15 cm, apparently decreasing in large females (17.9-25.3 cm) to 46-51%.  Terminal filament short (9% SL or less, slightly longer to 5 times longer than distal bulb) with 2 well-developed side branches arising just distal to bulb and often other branches along its length.  All branches with prominent internal bulblets, some nearly the same diameter as branch, resulting in a series of swellings in many specimens.  No melanophores in stem, between bulbs, or in filaments in specimens up to 15 cm SL; none between bulbs at any size.  Middorsal paired spots under skin between occiput and dorsal-fin origin usually 8, sometimes 7 (Ref. 11333).</dc:description>
