Upper limb of first gill arch with 5 – 6 gill rakers (four developed) and lower limb with 16 – 18 gill rakers, including only 0 – 1 rudimentary raker. Last ray of anal fin divided at its base. Lateral line scales 24 – 27; transverse scales above lateral line 2 – 4, and scales below lateral line 5 – 7; predorsal scales 5 – 6. Fresh specimens with glassy, almost translucent body without any stripes or bands (Fig. 2a). Tip of snout blackish yellow; lip, lower jaw and base of pectoral fin yellowish (Fig. 2b).
