A. López-Arbarello and A. M. Zavattieri 2008 | Among the following combination of characters, an asterisk (*) indicates synapomorphies: fusiform actinopterygians up to 50 mm SL; body depth 2.5–3.5· in SL; head length 0.3 SL; skull with relatively thin, unornamented bones*; wide skull roof bones; postparietals
about half the length of parietals*; supraorbital sensory canal do not enter postparietals; small postrostral; nasals wider dorsally than ventrally, do not articulate with antorbital*; suborbitals absent*; small antorbital and very slender infraorbital bones; maxilla not expanded posteroventrally*; slender lower jaw*; sharp conical teeth on maxillae, premaxillae, and lower jaws; suboperculum only slightly larger than operculum, both roughly oblong in shape, approximately as deep as long; three or four branchiostegal rays; cleithrum small with approximately equally large dorsal and anteroventral portions; dorsal fin slightly larger than anal fin; anal fin with 14 rays; caudal fin with 20 rays, four of which are in epaxial position; slender basal and fringing fulcra on unpaired fins; two preanal scutes. | |
