Operculum serrated, suboperculum sometimes serrated (Ref. 57414). Interoperculum and preoperculum rarely serrated (Ref. 57414, 81650). 16 soft rays in caudal fin (Ref. 57414). 2-5 serrations above opercular notch, none within notch, 2-4 serrations below, 0-19 subopercular serrations; caudal peduncle contact organs absent or very faintly developed (in available specimens)(Ref. 81650).Coloration: ground colour dark chocolate brown, often broken by light brown mottling on flank and head; ground colour extends onto unpaired fins, which usually have transparent distal borders; pelvic fins always darkly pigmented; belly and throat light tan often with dark mottling and/or crossed by several irregular dark bars; underside of mandible at snout with a dark brown bar; some specimens with a narrow, pale vertical bar extending from base of dorsal fin to just posterior of pelvic fin base, and streaks of dark pigment posterior to eye or at angle of jaw (Ref. 57414, 81650).
