Short Description
Body extremely slender. Dorsal and ventral coloration sharply contrasted; fine dark horizontal lines forming series of fine dots and dashes on upper half of body; a dark ventral saddle near middle of caudal peduncle. Head relatively short (usually < 21% TL). Caudal peduncle very elongate (usually > 23% TL). Eyes rather narrow; upper eyelid with pale naked patch. Denticles extremely dense, bristle-like, not arranged in defined rows. Flank-marking base forward of second dorsal-fin spine; its posterior branch longer than anterior branch and extending beyond free rear tip of second dorsal fin; central caudal marking absent. Monospondylous centra 41-45 (Ref. 45056).

Dentition
Description: Three series of functional teeth in upper jaw, one series in lower; teeth dissimilar in upper and lower jaws; upper teeth small, erect, multicuspid; mostly 3 cusps in females (rarely 5), central cusp broad, a third longer than lateral cusps; lateral cusps not particularly longer toward corner of mouth; 7-9 cusps in males, pair of cusps inserted adjacent central cusps smaller than both cusps adjacent in teeth with 9 cusps, otherwise normally descending in height from central cusp; teeth in lower jaw unicuspid, interlocking, blade-like, cusps low, very oblique, lower distal margin extremely short [1384];
