Upper jaw nearly reaching a point vertically below anterior nostril; single pair of pointed, well-developed, forward projecting canines at front of jaws; 6-7 small and laterally flattened teeth, well-spaced, in anterior part of jaws along each side. Pharyngeal teeth (Fig. 1): upper bones with 20-22 teeth forming triangular patch, anterior row in each patch asymmetrically conical, remainder molariform; lower bone broadly Y-shaped, row of 10-11 laterally compressed elongated teeth, centre three teeth somewhat enlarged and asymmetrically conical, remainder molariform; 4-5 conical teeth extend uniserially on to anterior shank of the bone. Caudal fin length in head length; first dorsal spine in snout length; second dorsal spine about one and a quarter times as long as first; ninth dorsal spine about one and a half times as long as first; length of longest dorsal ray in head length; first anal spine in first dorsal spine; third anal spine about three times as long as first; longest anal ray about equal to longest dorsal ray. Pectoral fins in head length; origin of pelvic fins below lower base of pectoral fins; pelvic fins in head length, first pelvic ray longest, reaching almost to vent.
