Body moderately elongate, dorsal head profile concave from snout to supraoccipital, convex to dorsal-fin origin, slightly convex along dorsal-fin base to adipose fin, and slightly concave from adipose fin to origin of caudal fin. Ventral body profile convex from anterior tip of lower jaw to end of anal-fin base, slightly concave to caudal fin. Caudal peduncle longer than deep. Adipose eyelid weakly developed, restricted to thin band immediately anterior to orbit. Snout shorter than orbital diameter.

Teeth in both jaws pluricuspid and incisiform with reduced buccal shelves. Dentary with 4* (21) outer row teeth, median tooth frequently with five cusps, second and third teeth with seven cusps, fourth tooth markedly smaller than adjacent tooth. Inner row of conical teeth proximate to dentary symphysis absent in all specimens (fig. 2E). Contralateral premaxillae separated by anteromedial process of mesethmoid and without interdigitations connecting medial surfaces (fig. 3C). Premaxilla with two rows of pluricuspid teeth. Outer premaxillary row usually with 2* (13) tricuspid teeth, but number variable 0 (2), 1 (3), or 3 (3), even variable contralaterally in a few specimens. Regardless of number, outer row premaxillary teeth always implanted above and between inner row teeth (i.e., alternating). Inner premaxillary row with 4* (21) teeth, each with 7 cusps. Series of cutting-edge cusps of inner row premaxillary teeth located along buccal (vs. lingual) face of each tooth (fig. 3C, see also Discussion). Four replacement teeth in both premaxillary and dentary replacement trenches. Maxilla edentulous, ascending process elongate and pointed, without terminal bifurcation (fig. 2F).</paragraph>
