. Cross-section of trunk roughly elliptical at level of dorsal-fin origin, gradually more compressed posterior to dorsal-fin base. Caudal peduncle region compressed, merging with caudal fin from dorsal view. Anterodorsal profile of body gently convex, curving in an even arch from snout to base of dorsal fin, except for discrete depression at base of supra-occipital process. Dorsal profile gently concave to straight from dorsal-fin base to adipose-fin origin and approximately straight or gently convex from that point to base of caudal fin. Ventral body profile in a continuous convex curve from mouth to pelvic-fin base. Ventral profile of body straight from pelvic-fin insertion to caudal-fin base. Fortyone to 43 myotomes apparent through skin; myotomes becoming progressively narrower and more angled posteriorly. No deposits of fatty material in globose bodies, commonly seen in heptapterids, perceptible through the skin. Pectoral pore absent. Anus and urogenital pore very close to each other.
