Antorbital luminous spot small, below axis of eye, less evident 
with age; 1 photophore near hind angle of cheek above hind part of 
maxillary; small humeral photophore at upper end of opercular cleft; 
2 operculars, upper larger and slightly below line from lower eye edge 
subpectoral, lower behind 
to upper^hind maxillary end; 3 equidistant branchiostegals; 5 pectorals, 
first interspace longest, fourth spot over and slightly posterior to 
third at level with pectoral fin origin; 1 suprapectoral close below 
lateral line over and little before upper subpectoral; 2 subpectorals; 
first or lower rather close below upper, which close before and slightly 
below pectoral fin origin; 4 ventrals, second pair most widely separated; 
1 supraventral little below middle in space between lateral line and 
ventral fin base; 8 f 11 anals, first 7 anteroanals weakly arched upward 
and eighth abruptly elevated in line Joining seventh with posterolateral

base and contiguous with precaudals; 3 supraanals, first and second at 
same level as fourth pectoral, first slightly over or before third 
i - . 
ventral, second above first anal ray base, third close below lateral line 
over and little before second anteroanal; 1 posterolateral close below 
lateral line about opposite base of second anal ray; 4 precaudals, last 
abruptly elevated close below lateral line near its end, penultimate
