Diagnosis
| Reference | Diagnosis | |
|---|---|---|
| K. A. Monsch and A. F. Bannikov 2011 | Anterior margin of vomer spatulate-shaped (see picture of Eocoelopoma gigas Casier, 1966; Monsch 2005, fig. 28) rather than concave, comparable to Scomberomorus (see Collette & Russo 1985). First six caudal vertebrae with small mid-lateral fossa. Nine to ten dorsal, and 7–8 anal finlets. Hypural plate consisting of hypurals 1–4 (–5) and uroneural, without caudal notch. Preural vertebrae 2–4 remarkably, but
not very abruptly, shortened compared to preceding ones. Traces of weak bony caudal keel on sixth preural vertebra. |
