Short description
Chiavi di identificazione | Morfologia | Morfometria
Spine dorsali (totale) : 7; Raggi dorsali molli (totale) : 10; Spine anali: 2; Raggi anali molli: 9. Body similar to gobioid fishes. No scales on body, but with many well-developed pit organs on head and body. The fan-like caudal fin has many procurrent rays. There is a single downward short spine on the preopercular edge, and many dark-brownish pigments on the caudal peduncle.
Body shape (shape guide): elongated; Cross section: compressed.
Sometimes taken by trawl net, and found in the open sea (Ref. 559).
