Body moderately compressed, the head rather elongate, the lower jaw projecting, depth of caudal peduncle in head; maxillary 2 in head, the distal end under the posterior margin of pupil, its distal width in eye; mandible in head: villiform teeth on jaws and vomer, none on palatines: gillrakers very small, S on lower limb of first arch; spines of head as follows: opercular 2; preopercular 2, the upper the larger, with a small superimposed spine on its base; bony stay across cheek with 2 spines, -t above eye, 5 on each side of nuchal region; a distinct fringed orbital tentacle equal in length to pupil; a short dermal flap at base of each nuchal spine; a branched flap at nostril, and a rather long prcorbital flap hanging over maxillary. Body entirely scaled, head sealed; origin of dorsal above axil of pectoral, longest spine in head; origin of anal under origin of soft dorsal, its longest ray 2 in head, the second anal spine the longest and strongest, in head: origin of ventrals about midway between tip of upper jaw and origin of anal, their length in head, their tips falling far short of anal; pectoral peculiar, the 9 upper rays short, about 2 in head, their tips scarcely extending past tips of ventrals; the lower part of fin elongate, of 7 simple rays, the longest in head, their tips beyond line with origin of anal fin: caudal rounded, in '^'' V 5^.
