Pectoral-fin unbranched ray distinctly divided distally, with 7–15 segments reaching almost half of its length. Exposition of cleithrum and coracoid lateral, restricted to area near pectoral-fin insertion, with few odontodes (1–30), remaining portions of pectoral girdle covered by skin. Arrector fossa partially enclosed by ventral laminar expansions of coracoid and cleithrum, opening very ample, extending laterally towards pectoral-fin base; opening region not covered with plates. Pectoral axillary slit present only in juveniles; some adults with vestigial round pore. Pelvic-fin rays i,5; unbranched ray shorter than branched rays. Anal-fin rays i,5. Caudal-fin rays i,14–15 (14),i; concave; lower lobe slightly longer than upper lobe; 3–5 (4) dorsal and 2–4 (3) ventral procurrent rays. Adipose fin absent; one or two azygous, round or elongate, plates in place of adipose fin present in some specimens.</paragraph>

Ground color of head and body light-brown to medium-brown on dorsal region and lightbrown on lateral and ventral areas. Head dark brown along parietosupraoccipital. Dark brown lateral stripe inconspicuous in most specimens, one and half lateral plate deep, from anterior portion of snout to caudal peduncle end, joining dark brown blotch at base of branched caudal-fin rays. Four dorsal dark brown saddles, more conspicuous in melanic specimens, extending lateroventrally and fused to lateral stripe: first starting little ahead and extending along first third of dorsal-fin base, second from very end of dorsal-fin base extending along three posterior mid-dorsal lateral plates, third after vertical line passing through end of anal-fin base, and fourth at end of caudal peduncle. Large specimens, including

All fins, except for caudal, with hyaline membranes and medium to dark brown, small, and elongate blotches along rays. Caudal-fin color pattern variable, most specimens with two transverse dark brown bars, first at base and second subterminal; some specimens with last one divided in two transverse bars.
