scutes between the pectoral and pelvic f<strong>in</strong>s, and 8 scutes between the pelvic and anal<br />

f<strong>in</strong>s. The total number of vertebrae is 35, with 17 caudal vertebrae. The number<br />

of ribs is 16. The depth between the dorsal marg<strong>in</strong> of the body and the abdom<strong>in</strong>al<br />

vertebral column at the maximum depth of the body is conta<strong>in</strong>ed 3.4 times <strong>in</strong> the<br />

depth between the abdom<strong>in</strong>al vertebral column and the ventral marg<strong>in</strong> of the body.<br />

In KMNH VP 100,193, the body depth is conta<strong>in</strong>ed 3.8 times <strong>in</strong> the standard<br />

length. The head length is conta<strong>in</strong>ed 3.7 times <strong>in</strong> the standard length. The<br />

number of dorsal f<strong>in</strong> rays is 10. The number of dorsal f<strong>in</strong> pterygiophores is 10.<br />

The number of anal f<strong>in</strong> rays is 25. Five predorsal scutes are visible. The ventral<br />

scutes are 18. The total number of vertebrae is 34, with 18 abdom<strong>in</strong>al and 16<br />

caudal vertebrae. The number of ribs is 16. The depth between the dorsal marg<strong>in</strong><br />

is conta<strong>in</strong>ed 2.4 times <strong>in</strong> the depth between the abdom<strong>in</strong>al vertebral column and the<br />

ventral marg<strong>in</strong> of the body.<br />

In KMNH VP 100,194, the body depth is conta<strong>in</strong>ed 4.4 times <strong>in</strong> the standard<br />

length. The head length is conta<strong>in</strong>ed 3.8 times <strong>in</strong> the standard length. The<br />

number of dorsal f<strong>in</strong> rays is 10. The number of anal f<strong>in</strong> pterygiophores is over 22.<br />

Ten predorsal scutes are visible. The ventral scutes are total 17, with 10 scutes<br />

between the pectoral and pelvic f<strong>in</strong>s, and 7 scutes between the pelvic and anal f<strong>in</strong>s.<br />

There are 4 ventral scutes, which do not have vertical elements, under the coracoid.<br />
