Closely related to congenerics but distinguished from them by the combination of the absence of pectoral spine serrations and the presence of an adipose fin (Ref. 43912).Coloration: in life: colourless and translucent, swim-bladder showing through skin; dorsal surface and base of anal fin lightly peppered with melanophores (Ref. 43912). Formal fixed specimens: body white and opaque (yellow-brown in alcohol), but melanophores still visible (Ref. 43912).
