The dorsal fin begins at a distance from the snout which is equal to 30 — 31,8% of the total length; it contains 92—93 rays, the anal fin 75 rays. The ventral fins are small, almost of the same length as the diameter of the pupil. The length of the pectorals amounts to 13—14,2 " „ of the total length; they contain (19)20(21) rays. The scales in all the present specimens (225—380 mm. long) reach to a point which lies under or a little in front of the anterior end of the dorsal fin, \et a part under the dorsal fin anteriorK- and the belh- to the anus (likewise a little behind this) are naked. In the smallest specimen the scalv covering ceases at some distance (23 mm.) from the end of the tail, but in the others it extends very close or even to the root of the tail. The fins are free of scales. The lateral line begins on the back of the head over the gill-cover, curves down with a slight arch towards the median line, along which it then continues to the point of the tail. A few pores are to be seen forward on the trunk above this mediolateral lateral line. The colouration is somewhat speckled (Tab. II, fig. 2 and fig. 9 in text). I cannot give a better notion of it than by citing Liitken's description, which says concerning the males: The colour-markings are as a rule in the form of a network on the trunk and tail, i. e. composed of an.
