Short description
Morfologia | Morfometria
Spine dorsali (totale): 0; Raggi dorsali molli (totale): 0; Spine anali 0; Raggi anali molli: 0; Vertebre: 35 - 41. Diagnosed from all its congeners by the absence of pectoral and anal fins, posterior naris absent, four laterosensory pores on the head, and presence of 9-10 caudal fin rays. Differs from Pygidianops eigenmanni by the absence of eyes (Ref. 56682).
