Head length () [32]%SL; head depth at occipital () [12]%HL, diameter of eye () [23]%, length of upper pectoral fin lobe () [31]%, length of lower pectoral fin lobe () [29]%, mandible to anus () [27]%, maximum body depth () [13]%. Upper jaw () [32]%. Description Snout blunt, dorsal profile of head rising rapidly to occipital region. Nostrils single, without a raised rim; external opening anterior to orbit a distance distinctly less than diameter of eyeball, on a horizontal through pupil of eye. Eye small, covered by skin; pupil round. Mouth subterminal, jaws horizontal, broad. Lower jaw slightly included by upper. Maxillary extending posteriorly to below orbit. Teeth of both jaws small, simple. Premaxillary teeth smaller than those of dentary, often obscure, occasionally completely absent. When present, premaxillary teeth form a single series posteriorly, often irregularly biserial or triserial near sym- physis. Number of teeth present on each premaxillary varies from none to about 15, usually 4-10 present. Dentary teeth extending posteriorly behind cleft of mouth, closely spaced, forming a single series except often irregularly biserial or triserial near symphysis of mandible. Teeth simple, stout, curved canines, pointing distinctly anteriorly. Largest teeth posteriormost, gradually decreasing in
