Dorsal fin single, with 11–13 spines and 13–18 segmented, branched rays; the fin margin slightly notched before the soft-rayed part; anal fin with 3 spines and 7– 9 segmented, branched rays; caudal fin truncate or convex, with 15 branched, segmented rays; no filamentous or elongated median-fin rays; pectoral fins rounded, with 15–21 rays, most of which are branched and fleshy. Mouth terminal, jaws equal; premaxillae slightly protrusile, maxilla reaches to below rear half of eye; supramaxilla autogenous, well developed, its length about half length of maxilla, hidden by skin on upper rear edge of maxilla. Jaws with inner row or rows of small slender teeth and a few outer teeth enlarged as small canines; vomer and palatines with cardiform teeth; tongue edentate. Opercle with 3 sharp spines posteriorly, but upper and lower spines are mostly hidden by skin and scales; preopercle serrate, with 3 or 4 serrae at angle enlarged and 1–3 large, antrorse spines on ventral edge. Branchiostegal rays 7, the membranes connected to anterior end of isthmus. Lower limb of first gill arch with 13–16 gill-rakers, of which 4–8 are rudiments. Oblong tooth plate on 2nd epibranchial. Anterior nostrils with a fleshy rim, the rear margin enlarged, forming a large flap reaching to or over posterior nostril. Vertebrae 26 (10 abdominal + 16 caudal or 11 abdominal + 15 caudal); 3 supraneural bones: 0/0/0+2/1+1/1/1/1 or 0+0/0/2/1+1/1/1/1/.
