Dorsal and anal fins naked. 1 /3 or less of caudal fin scaled; squ. caud. 3—7; outer cycloid. Dorsal spines subequal in length from 4th, 5th, or 6th, last longest. Lappets in males moderately long to long, pointed; in holotype 3rd—8th prolonged, 5th longest, about twice spine lengths; in other males (from mm SL) only 3rd—5th lappets distinctly prolonged; in females and young males moderately long, bluntly pointed. Soft fin pointed, filamentous elongation of 2nd and 3rd ray to past principal caudal fin in large males, to at most middle of caudal fin ir< females. Soft anal fin similar, but shorter, only to middle of caudal fin in males, little behind caudal fin base in females. D. (1), (18), (4). Dtot21(l), 22(18), 23(4). A. (1), (l), (19), (2). Atot8(l), 9(20), 10(2). Pectoral fin to vent. Ventral fin pointed, first ray elongated in males, at most to middle of soft anal fin, not much shorter in the largest females. Caudal fin truncate with rounded corners in females and young males; in males from mm SL truncate with produced 5th and 11th or 12th rays, single or supported basally by 4th and 12th or 13th, streamers distally filamentous. Dentition biserial. Outer series in upper jaw of 40—55 teeth, in lower jaw 40—50; inner series in upper jaw about as long as outer in adults, in lower jaw quite short. Outer anterior teeth wide-spaced, Please note that these images are extracted from scanned page images that may have been digitally enhanced for r
