Height 3.4 3.5, 4.4 4.5 in length with caudal. Head 3.8 4, 

 about 5 in length with caudal. Eye thrice in head, slightly 

 longer than snout, slightly shorter than interorbital space. Cleft 

 of mouth obliquely ascending, its anterior end in the level of 

 the superior part of the eye, its posterior end not reaching 

 vertical through frontborder of eye. Origin of dorsal behind 

 middle of distance between snout and last caudal scales, 

 opposite to I I th or 1 2 th lateral scale, separated by 12 or 13 scales 

 from head. Dorsal slightly rounded, its height about two third of 

 the height of the body, about in the middle between ventrals 

 and anal. Anal concave, its height slightly less than that of 

 the dorsal. Ventrals with the prolonged outer rays nearly 

 reaching the anal, their origin is about due eyediameter nearer 

 to anal than to operculum. Pectorals slightly concave, reaching 

 ventrals, slightly longer than head. Caudal a little longer than 

 head, not very deeply emarginated, its longest rays about one 

 third longer than middle rays. Least height of caudal peduncle 

 1.4 1.5 in its length, 7 rows of scales between the lateral 

 lines counted over the back of the middle of the caudal peduncle. 

 Colour of formol specimens superiorly dark brown, inferiorly 

 yellowish, both colours separated by a black band from the 

 snout to the end of the caudal, the breadth of which is in- 

 creasing from the snout to below the dorsal, the hinderpart 

 is broadened ventrally, so that the lateral line is included in 

 it. Outer rays of caudal darkish, as also the anterior and superior 

 part of the dorsal, other fins with a dark hue. Length 85 mm.
