  This 
  genus 
  differs 
  from 
  Sebasticthys 
  in 
  the 
  absence 
  of 
  palatine 
  teeth. 
  Tho 
  known 
  

   species 
  are 
  small 
  in

  and 
  not 
  very 
  numerous.

  This 
  genus 
  includes 
  species 
  which 
  have 
  the 
  general 
  characters 
  of 
  Sebastichthys, 
  with 
  

   the 
  vertebra! 
  and 
  dorsal 
  spines 
  in 
  smaller 
  number, 
  as 
  in 
  Scorpwna. 
  

  

  Tho 
  species 
  are 
  red 
  in 
  color 
  and 
  mostly 
  inhabit 
  deep 
  water.
