Eyes situated much nearer to the end of the snout than to that of the operclc. Teeth on the vomer in two small, separate groups, which are either separate from, or continuous with, the much larger rounded patches of palatine teeth. All the teeth villiform. The maxillary barbels extend to, or nearly to, the end of the operculum; the outer ones of the mandible are half as long as the head. Crown of the head granulated; occipital process rather broader than long, tri- angular, with a ridge along the middle; the basal bone of the dorsal.
