Characters given in the generic definition are not repeated here, except for counts of fin rays. Dorsal fin with 13 spines and 10 soft rays (rarely XII, 11; XIII, 9 or 11; XIV, 9 or 10). Anal fin with 3 spines and 5 soft rays (rarely III, 4 or 6). Pelvic fin with 1 spine and 5 soft rays. Gill rakers simple, short and robust, longest raker on first gill arch shorter or subequal to gill filaments around angle of gill arch; gill rakers on lower limb around angle of first gill arch more or less branched into two; fourth gill slit narrow (partially closed by membrane). Branchiostegal rays 7. Vertebrae 10 + 14 (rarely 9 + 14, 10 + 15 or 11 + 13). Formula for configuration of supraneural bones, anterior neural spines and anterior dorsal pterygiophores usually //2+1/1/1/1/1/1/1/1/1/1+1/. Swimbladder present.

Head large, its length greater than body depth. Low membranous tube associated with anterior and posterior nostrils; posterior edge of tube on anterior nostril slightly expanded. Numerous small papillae sometimes present on frontal surface of bulge of snout and chin. Ctenoid scales covering on head, including cheek, lacrimal, suborbital pit, interopercle, subopercle, opercle, posterodorsal pit of supraocular, channel between interorbital ridges, occiput and suprapostorbital area surrounded by parietal, pterotic, lower posttemporal and cleithral spine bases; scales absent on both lips and bulge of snout. Maxilla with weakly ctenoid scales; posterior portion of maxilla almost entirely scaled or partly scaled as one-third maxilla depth. Mandible usually with exposed weakly ctenoid scales; sometimes with embedded cycloid scales or lacking scales in large adults. Ctenoid scales covering on body and extending onto base of caudal fin; scales on ventral body surface relatively weak; pectoral-fin base covered with weakly ctenoid scales; a row of elongated cycloid scales on bases of soft-rayed portions of dorsal and anal fin. Lateral line complete, weakly downward sloping posteriorly. Three sensory pores on underside of each dentary; a small pore on each side of symphysial knob.</paragraph>
