Rather large luminous organ along lower front eye edge, also 
supraorbital veiled photophore and one on medio-inferior eye edge; 
2 opercular, upper larger and in line with lower eye edge and pectoral 
fin origin, lower veiled behind lower hind maxillary end; 3 veiled 
branchiostegals; 5 pectorals, first interspace longest, fourth photophore 
higher than upper subpectoral or opposite interspace between third and 
fifth pectorals; 1 suprapectoral over second pectoral about level with 
supraventral, little behind pectoral fin origin; 2 subpectorals, nearly 
equidistant in inclined series including first pectoral, with upper close 
before bases of lowest pectoral rays; 5 ventrals, second and third 
progressively higher, third about same level as fourth pectoral, first 
indistinctly within pectoral base; 1 supraventral at lower 2/5 in space 
between lateral line and first ventral; 4 -+• 3 anals, posteroanals behind 
anal fin base; 3 supraanals in inclined line from first to third or 
uppermost, first but little elevated from fifth ventral, second midway 
in series to third, which well below lateral line or over anal fin origin 
or little before first anteroanal; 2 posterolaterals, form continuous arch 
with last anteroanals, uppermost at same level below lateral line as upper 
superoanal; 4 precaudals, arched along lower border of caudal lobe basally, 
equidistant, uppermost at same level below lateral line as uppermost 
/ 
supraanal and posterolateral, Infracaudal luminous plate extends from anal 
‘ to - T - v 'j ■
