General morphology (Fig. 6). Body proportions are given in Table II. Body moderately elongate, laterally compressed towards caudal fin. Head 28.5–31.0 of SL, moderately depressed, its greatest width being 58.5–69.4% of its length, with a nearly horizontal predorsal profile. Snout moderately extent but shorter than eye, 78.9–94.7% in eye length, dorsal profile of snout moderately sloping. Eyes dorsolateral, close to each other, slightly extending above dorsal profile in some specimens, 29.2–30.6 in the length of the head. Anterior nostril short, tubular, erect, without process from rim; posterior nostril pore-like, near orbit, with ...
