Rostro-dorsal profile nearly horizontal. Height equal to or 

 somewhat less than length of head, which goes 4'/.^ — 5 times 

 in total length. Eye without gelatinous membrane, 3 — 3'/^ in 

 head. Interorbital space nearly flat, more than twice in length 

 of head and about equal to its postorbital part. Praeorbital 

 oblique, nearly straight, its lower border with a shallow emar- 

 gination, its hindborder truncate and serrated. Maxillary hidden. 

 Upperlip very thick, forming the frontborder of the snout, its 

 lower fourth with about 4 series of soft papillae, the inferior 

 of which are branched at their extremities; it is deeply deflected 

 to the rather thick lower lip, which is thickly studded with 

 papillae but which are wanting in the central part of the lower 

 lip. Origin of first dorsal, which is separated by about 20 

 scales from end of snout, is nearer to base of caudal than to 

 end of snout and opposite to about I2th or 13th scale of lateral 

 line. Dorsal spines rather weak, the first about equal to post- 

 orbital part of head, lower than second dorsal and anal, which
