Short description
Bestämningsnycklar | Morfologi | Morfometri
Taggstrålar i ryggfenan (totalt) : 9; Mjukstrålar i ryggfenan (totalt) : 10; Taggstrålar i analfenan: 3; Mjukstrålar i analfenan: 7; Ryggkotor: 25. This species is distringuished by the following set of characters: luminous gland is Y-shaped
extending from the throat to midway between origins of pelvic and anal fins, its length 23.1-27.0% SL; symphysis of the lower jaw sharply protruded; proximal radial of the first anal-fin pterygiophore with concavity on anterior surface; anus positioned closer to pelvic-fin origin than to that of anal fin; scales are weakly ctenoid; no vertical line on cheek; scales between first dorsal-fin base and lateral line 3; pectoral-fin rays 16-17; and gill rakers 20-23 (Ref. 129189).
