Breve descrizione
Chiavi di identificazione | Morfologia | Morfometria
Spine dorsali (totale) : 2; Raggi dorsali molli (totale) : 6 - 7; Spine anali: 2; Raggi anali molli: 5. This species is distinguished from its congeners by the following set of characters: 23-26 dorsal procurrent caudal-fin rays; relatively long and thin mesethmoid cornu; relatively shorter maxilla, slightly longer than the premaxilla, without a distal widening; well-developed third hypobranchial ossification; 35 or 36 vertebrae; dorsal-fin origin at a vertical through the centrum of 17th vertebra; a longer nasal barbel, its tip posteriorly reaching the opercle or the area just anterior to it; rudimentary foramen on the parurohyal; narrow, rod-shaped basibranchial 3; 36-39 premaxillary teeth; robust comma-shaped osseous core in the autopalatine articular shell for the lateral ethmoid absent; and row of variably shaped small pale brown spots on LDPZ 3 (Ref. 137859).
Body shape (shape guide): elongated; Cross section: oval.
