Diagnosis: snout short, its length about 50% of the post-ocular length of the head (Ref. 28714), prominent, but not drawn out into a proboscis (Ref. 2915, 81274). Dorsal fin with 63-82 rays, beginning clearly in advance of pelvic fins; anal with 16-20 rays, its base comprised from 4.1 to 6.3 times in dorsal-fin base (Ref. 81274). Caudal peduncle relatively deep, its depth comprised 1.1-2.0 times in its length (Ref. 2915, 81274). 26-34 scales around caudal peduncle; ratio standard length/body depth: 4.2-6.2; upper jaw with 6-16, lower jaw with 10-22 teeth (Ref. 81274).
Possesses electroreceptors over the entire head and on the ventral and dorsal regions of the body, but absent from the side and the caudal peduncle where the electric organ is located (Ref. 10011). A fractional spawner (Ref. 10605; 10606).
