Short description

 

 

 

   

   Overall colour is silvery-greyish with thin dark margins on each scale and a large black blotch on the axil of the pectoral fin. The dorsal profile of the head creates a clear hump in front of the eyes with a steeply sloping snout below the hump. It has large eyes with a diameter roughly equal to the length of the snout.
