GENUS IV. SALARIAS, Cuv. 
Species whose teeth, forming a single range and placed close to each other,

sichord. Their head, strongly compressed above, is very broad below; 
their lips are thick and fleshy ; their profile is completely vertical, and their 
spirally ‘convoluted intestines are longer and thinner than in the common 
Blenny.
