The ventral primary branch bifurcates into 2 secondary branches nearly at midpoint of gill length, often nearly at same level as anterior secondary branch. Variation in this pattern occurs with ventral primary branch bifurcating more apically than anterior and posterior secondary branches, and anterior and secondary branches bifurcating at same level.
