It has an elongated body, with a preanal length of 27.5% up to 33.2% of SL (Ref. 58526). Although the eyes are small, they remain clearly visible; tube-like anterior nostrils are present, although small (Ref. 58526). The fleshy dorsal, anal and caudal fins form a continuous finfold (Ref. 58526). The pectoral spine is serrated on both sides (Ref. 58526). Alcohol preserved specimens gradually fade from dark brown on the dorsal side to whitish brown on the ventral side; both sides are separated by a white line, representing the lateral line (Ref. 58526).
