First lepidotrichia of rayed dorsal and pectoral fins present as flexible, unbranched fin rays lacking serrations; structure of adult-male anal fin (seven proximal radials present, two posterior-most smaller than anterior ones); adipose fin absent or, if present, a long, low fin fold; and putative smaller maximum adult body size (1.5-2.2 cm SL).
