profile of head straight; snout high; mouth rather small, terminal, oblique; 

 lower jaw included; maxillary reaching vertical from nostrils, not to eye; nostrils 

 large, elevated, separated by a flap, nearer eye than tip of snout; eye large, 

 slightly elevated, not entering profile; belly trenchant from below pectorals to 

 vent, arched before and behind ventrals. 



Dorsal fin inserted nearer base of caudal than tip of snout by a distance 

 equal to half the head; first soft ray slightly longer than spine-like ray, almost 

 equal to length of head; caudal deeply forked; lower lobe slightly the longer; 

 pectoral long, pointed; first ray longest, reaching four-fifths distance to ventrals, 

 which are inserted half their length before dorsal, and extend half way to anal; 

 anal rather long and low; first rays twice the length of last, inserted under apex 

 of depressed dorsal. 



Color in spirits entirely pale, slightly dusky above; all fins pale.
