Large antorbital luminous organ along most of front eye edge; 1 
opercular photophore slightly below line from lower eye edge to supra- 
pectoral; 3 veiled branchiostegals equidistant; 5 pectorals, first 
interspace longest, fourth slightly behind and elevated little above upper 
subpectoral or about level with third ventral; 1 supraventral little below 
middle between lateral line and pectoral origin; 2 subpectorals, first 
midway in inclined series from first pectoral to upper subpectoral, which 
little before suprapectoral or close before lower pectoral fin ray basep; 
5 ventrals, third elevated till slightly higher than first or lowest 
supraanal and close before fourth ventral; 1 supraventral, midway between 
lateral line and ventral fin origin; 4 + 6 anals, first anteroanal slightly 
higher than second, first posteroanal over base of last anal ray; 3 
supraanals in inclined line, first or lowest above and posterior from fifth 
ventral, second little nearer first than third or uppermost which close 
below lateral line over anal fin origin; 2 posterolaterals, first forms 
continuous arc with last anteroanal and second or upper, which little lower 
below lateral line than upper supraanal; 4 precaudals arched progressively 
along base of lower caudal lobe with fourth or last level with upper 
posterolateral. Moderate luminous organ below suprapectoral photophore.
