The lower jaw has a small patch of recurved canine teeth on either side inside a row of smaller stubby canines near the anterior end. The upper jaw has a few much smaller canines in the area above the patch on the jaw, with tiny canines in a row along the edge of the jaw. As the 4 largest specimens were female, no assessment of sex-related dentition differences could be made. Such differences are known in other species of

<paragraph id="CDB8AB45DDC95EC3B18565B92E28BC6C" lastPageNumber="4" pageNumber="3">Color Pattern in Life: The most prominent feature is the thin white lateral stripe just above the mid-line of the body running anteriorly from the upper part of the eye posteriorly to the origin of the caudal fin. On the upper surface of the eye the stripe is slightly wider than on the body. When looking straight ahead, the eye line is aligned with the body stripe (Fig. 1). A thin white stripe (called a "bar" by Colin, 1975) is found on the mid-line of the snout, running from near the forward margin of the eyes to near the upper lip (Fig. 1). Its width is similar to the stripe on the body. The body has a broad dark lateral stripe running along the mid-line. Its upper limit is at the white lateral stripe along its entire length. Its lower margin starts at the lower edge of the eye, drops slightly lower on the belly, then becomes narrower posteriorly. It ends in a rounded extension on the anterior part of the caudal fin, extending further posteriorly than the white stripe. Other than the extension of the dark lateral stripe onto the caudal fin, all fins are clear and colorless. The area above the white lateral stripe is dark to the origin of the first dorsal fin, then is pale posteriorly. The bases of the dorsal fins have some melanophores. The dorsal portion of the head is dark between the eyes and onto the snout. The lips are dark anteriorly becoming pale posteriorly where they merge with the pale coloration of the ventral surface of the head. The ventral surface of the mouth, throat, abdomen and tail are pale. Eye black with the exception of the white stripe on its upper surface.</paragraph>

|
||
Color Pattern in Preserved Specimens: In the preserved specimens used in this description, the white lateral stripe and snout stripe are still plainly visible as a dark line 30 years after preservation in all specimens. The posterior extension of the dark lateral stripe is visible as a dark splotch at the base of the caudal fin. Otherwise the dark stripe has faded to just a faint area.
