Morfologia | Morfometria
Espinhos dorsais (total): 0; Raios dorsais moles (total): 14-17; Espinhos anais 0; Raios anais moles: 12 - 16. Black in color, pale luminous patches on middle of snout and along front of upper jaw (Ref. 3982). Pale luminous patches develop with growth on shoulder and on lower sides between pectoral and pelvic fins below dorsal (Ref. 3982). Body moderately elongate and slender, maxillary teeth comblike. Serial photophores are not broken into small groups (Ref. 37039).
