Short description
Chiavi di identificazione | Morfologia | Morfometria
Raggi dorsali molli (totale) : 3; Raggi anali molli: 3. Metamorphosed females distinguished by the following characteristics: globular escal bulb with low, rounded, distal prolongation, without appendages; two pairs of posterolateral appendages, inner pair short, outer pair less than half the diameter of escal bulb, each bearing a distal cluster of short filaments; barbel divided near base into a median and 2 lateral primary branches; caudal peduncle with ventrolateral series of large subdermal melanophores (Ref. 86949).
