For other body proportions see Table 1; for number of teeth, vertebrae and rays, Table 2. Snout (Fig. IB, C) pointed in young, slightly pointed or rounded in larger specimens. Subterminal mouth. Extremely fleshy snout and lips and base of maxillary barbel. Barbel length variable (shorter in MCZ 8290 and 36195; 39 to 44 % of head length), dorsal margin of barbel with numerous fleshy folds.
