. Body laterally compressed, elongate, deepest at dorsal-fin origin. Dorsal profile of head and body slightly convex from snout tip to dorsal-fin origin, gently lowering to uppermost point of caudal-fin base. Ventral profile of head and body slightly convex from lower jaw tip to pelvic-fin insertion, thereafter, slowly rising to lowermost point of caudal-fin base. Single spine-like scute just anterior to dorsal-fin origin. Abdomen somewhat rounded, covered with six (five to seven) spine-like prepelvic scutes. Pelvic scute without spine. Postpelvic scutes absent. Anus just anterior to anal-fin origin. Snout tip rounded; snout length less than eye diameter. Mouth large, inferior, ventral to body axis, extending backwards beyond posterior margin of eye. Maxilla long, its posterior tip pointed, just reaching (or slightly short of) opercle posterior margin. Lower jaw slender. Single row of conical teeth on both jaws and palatine. Patch of fine conical teeth on pterygoid. Several distinct conical teeth on vomer. Several rows of conical teeth on upper edges of basihyal and basibranchial. Eye large, round, covered with adipose eyelid, positioned laterally on head dorsal to horizontal through pectoral-fin insertion, visible in dorsal view. Pupil round. Orbit elliptical. Nostrils close to each other, anterior to orbit. Posterior margin of pre-opercle concave, indented. Subopercle and opercle with smoothly rounded posterior margins. Gill membrane without serrations. Interorbital space flat, width less than eye diameter. Pseudobranchial filaments present, length of longest filament less than eye diameter. Gill rakers long, slender, rough, visible from side of head when mouth opened. Single row of asperities on anterior surface of gill rakers. Isthmus muscle long, reaching anteriorly to posterior margin of gill membranes. Urohyal hidden by isthmus muscle, not visible without dissection. Gill membrane on each side joined distally, most of isthmus muscle exposed, not covered by gill membrane. Body scales deciduous, completely lacking on specimens, except for prepelvic scutes. Head scales absent. Fins scaleless, except for broad triangular sheath of scales on caudal fin. Dorsal-fin origin posterior to vertical through base of last pelvic-fin ray, slightly posterior to middle of body. Dorsal and anal fins with three anteriormost rays unbranched. First dorsal- and anal-fin rays minute. Anteriormost three rays of both dorsal and anal fins closely-spaced. Anal-fin origin just below base of eighth (eighth to eleventh) dorsal-fin ray. Posterior tip of depressed anal fin not reaching caudal-fin base. Uppermost pectoral-fin ray unbranched, inserted below body axis. Posterior tip of pectoral fin not reaching to pelvic fin insertion. Dorsal, ventral and posterior margins of pectoral fin nearly linear. Pelvic fin shorter than pectoral fin, insertion anterior to vertical through dorsal-fin origin. Posterior tip of depressed pelvic fin not reaching to vertical through dorsal-fin origin (reaching to vertical through first to third dorsal-fin ray origin in some paratypes). Caudal fin forked, posterior tips pointed.
