					Μαλακές ραχιαίες ακτίνες (συνολικά) : 5; Μαλακές εδρικές ακτίνες: 4. This species is distinguished by the following characters:   with a simple, long, laterally compressed, posterior escal appendage; a relatively short illicium; subopercle short and broad, ventral margin nearly circular; escal appendage morphology with anterior appendage
internally pigmented, a pair of unbranched, anterolateral appendages, the terminal papilla with a single distal spot of pigment, and a pair of fleshy, stout, medial appendages, each divided distally into two or three (on each side) short, slender filaments (Ref. 116652).
Cross section: oval.
