Raios dorsais moles (total) : 27 - 32; Raios anais moles: 26 - 31; Vértebras: 19. Diagnosis: All external teeth with truncate cutting edges. Anteriormost pair in each jaw extending across full width of mouth. Two vertical small tusk-like processes on internal surface of anteriormost pair of teeth in lower jaw.
