Etymology: Kumba: Named for the Marine Biological Association of the United Kingdom, whose research vessel Sarsia dredged the type species; dentoni: Named for Professor E. J. Denton, F.R.S. in recognition of his fine explorations in bathybiophysics.
Eponymy: KUMBA is an anagram of the initial letters of the Marine Biological Association of the United Kingdom. Dr Sir Eric James Denton (1923–2007) was a marine biologist who was originally a physicist. [...] (Ref. 128868), visit book page.

Description synthétique
Clés d'identification | Morphologie | Morphométrie
Épines dorsales (Total) : 2. Large, soft head inflated. Sensory canals on head with small pores. Dorsally scaleless snout extend to the level of the anterior nostril. Rudimentary barbel, less than 3% of head length (HL); orbit diameter about 28% HL; snout much longer than orbit, about 1.1 into the broad interorbital. Light organ poorly developed and visible only as a small, naked, black projection in front of the anus. Second spinous ray of first dorsal fin smooth. 1D II,9 (Ref. 11651).
Body shape (shape guide): elongated.
