Abstract

Diagnosis: number of fins rays D1: VI; D2: I+ 9; C: 21–22; A: I+ 8; P: 17–18; Pv: 10; number of scales on the lateral line Ec: 27–28; number of vertebras V: 26. Evidence of sexual dimorphism is shown by two different shapes of urogenital papilla. The lateral system was observed using scanning electron microscopy after 2% glutaraldehyde fixation in sea water. The oculoscapular, preopercular canals, mucous pores are inventoried and the distribution and number of neuromasts are presented. The coding sequences for 18S ribosomic RNA are identified.
