Description synthétique Clés d'identification | Morphologie | Morphométrie

Épines dorsales (Total) : 0; Rayons mous dorsaux (Total) : 10 - 11; Épines anales: 0; Rayons mous anaux: 11; Vertèbres: 45 - 46. The location of the dorsal fin base distinctly anterior to the vertical through the anal fin origin distinguishes this species from all ctenoluciids except B. cuvieri and B. xyrekes, from which it can be distinguished by the dark pigmentation (spot) on the caudal fin and the pigmentation on the body.
