Short description आकृति विज्ञान | मौरफोमैटरिक्स

पृष्ठीय रीढ़ (सम्पूर्ण): 0; पृष्ठीय सौफट रेज़ (सम्पूर्ण): 10-11; गुदा कांटा 0; ऐनल सौफट रेज़: 21 - 24; जानवरों की रीड़ का जोड़: 35 - 37. Diagnosis: Bathyaethiops baka is distinguished from all congeners by an incomplete squamation with the scale cover variably reduced to no pre-dorsal scales, usually no scales on caudal peduncle, and usually a scale-free patch on middle flank at about level of pelvic-fin origin; furthermore distinguished by a unique colour pattern, i.e., a combination of a humeral spot of about pupil-size and the absence of dark vertical bars along midlateral flanks (Ref. 110423). It is difficult to distinguish from juvenile Bathyaethiops caudomaculatus, from which it differs by the usually absence of unicuspid teeth in the second row of lower jaws vs. presence, and usually the absent or rudimentary supraneural between two neural spines directly in front of the first dorsal fin pterygiophore vs. well developed (Ref. 110423).
