Raggi dorsali molli (totale): 11-14; Raggi anali molli: 10 - 12; Vertebre: 39 - 43. Entire surface of body skin perforated by pores of ampullary organs; cephalic sensory canal system represented only by anterior portion of supraorbital canal enclosed by nasal bone, and posterior portion of postotic canal enclosed by pterotic and posttemporosupracleithrum; two anteriormost pores of supraorbital canal present medial to anterior and posterior nostrils, respectively; one or two pores of postotic canal on pterotic and between pterotic and posttemporosupracleithrum; body lateral line represented only by portion posterior to head, with one or two pores; head and body pit lines absent in most individuals; peritoneum and wall of pleuroperitoneal cavity blackish due to presence of many melanophores; eye small and supported by membranous outgrowth of hyomandibula and by membrane; and ceratobranchial and epibranchial bones without ossified gill rakers. The short dorsal fin has 5 precurrent rays plus 6 to 9 principal rays; anal fin has 4 precurrent rays and 6 to 8 principal rays.

Estimates based on models

Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804):  PD50 = 0.5156   [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].
Bayesian length-weight: a=0.00661 (0.00282 - 0.01550), b=2.99 (2.79 - 3.19), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this (Sub)family-body shape (Ref. 93245).
Trophic level (Ref. 69278):  3.1   ±0.4 se; based on size and trophs of closest relatives
Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153):  Low vulnerability (10 of 100).
