Espinas dorsales (total): 0; Radios blandos dorsales (total): 12-13; Espinas anales 0; Radios blandos anales: 7 - 8. Lower jaw falls inside upper jaw by at least the thickness of the lower lip; lower and upper lip well developed; head length less than 3.5 times in standard length; body depth at least 1.2 times in head length; no clear nuchal hump; eye diameter at least 2 times in snout length.
