Descrição breve
Chaves de identificação | Morfologia | Morfometria
This species is distinguished by the following characters: complete lateral line complete with 28-33 pored scales )mode 31); circumpendicular scales 10-12 (mode 12); one pair of conspicuous oral barbels which surpass vertical through middle of eye (Ref. 124213).
