Antorbital luminous organ occupies most of front eye edge; 1 opercular 
photophore well above hind maxillary end; 5 pectorals, first interspace 
longest, fourth photophore slightly before and over fifth, level with upper 
subpectoral; 1 suprapectoral midway between lateral line and pectoral 
origin or slightly behind upper suhpectoral; 2 subpectorals, first or 
lower little nearer first pectoral than upper subpectoral, which close 
before bases of lowest pectoral fin rays; 5 ventrals, third elevated level 
to little above fourth pectoral and rather close before second ventral; 1 
supraventral nearly at upper fourth between lateral line and ventral oriein 
or first ventral photophore; 5 or 6 4- 5 anals, first anteroanal little 
before, over or slightly posterior to second, level to little higher than 
lower supraanal or lower posterolateral, posteroanals arch upwards toward 
lateral line little above middle of space below lateral line; 3 supraanals 
in inclined line with last ventral to uppermost which close below lateral 
line, first or lowest little nearer last ventral and second equidistant to 
upper supraanal; 2 posterolaterals, lower midway to little nearer last 
anteroanal and upper posterolateral, also posterior,, upper less posterior 
and close below lateral line; 4 precaudals, lower 3 equidistant, closer, in 
slightly inclined line up and back so uppermost close below and behind end 
of lateral line. Rather large luminous organ below suprapectoral.
