. Body elongate, moderately laterally compressed. Predorsal contour straight to slightly convex, prepelvic contour convex. Eye situated in anterior half of head, snout short. Mouth terminal, directed slightly obliquely upwards with lower jaw projecting. Angle of jaws situated at vertical through anterior third of eye. Dorsal contour of body slightly arched, convex, less so in females, ventral contour of body straight; both contours slightly converging towards caudal peduncle. Caudal peduncle only slightly attenuated posteriorly. Teeth developed in a circular posterior patch on parasphenoid, also present on vomer, but absent from palatine, basihyal and hypobranchial 3.
