Espinhos dorsais (total): 0; Espinhos anais 0; Raios anais moles: 17 - 26. Belly with 25 to 30 total scutes. Anterior arm of pre-operculum with the third infra-orbital bone immediately above it, no fleshy gap between. Lower jaw strongly flared outward. A pair of grooves in the spongy skin on top of head, converging posteriorly.
