Espinhos dorsais (total) : 1; Raios dorsais (total) : 4 - 5; Espinhos anais: 0; Raios anais : 4; Vértebras: 20. A large median and two small lateral oval caruncles immediately in front of origin of dorsal fin (Ref. 13608). Branchiostegal rays: 6 (Ref. 36494).
Body shape (shape guide): short and / or deep.
Males dwarfed, becoming parasitic on females. Maximum size of free-living males is 1.05 cm (Ref. 4494). Females are oviparous, with planktonic larvae (Ref. 36494). Eggs are presumably contained in floating gelatinous rafts (Ref. 36494 ).
