Polvdactrlus macrochir is characterized by 14 or 15 pectoral-fin rays (usually 14 ), five
pectoral filaments. 70-76 pored lateral-line scales, 32-35 gill rakers. occipital profile concave
in adults, posterior margin of maxilla extending considerably beyond posterior margin
of adipose eyelid, depth of posterior portion of maxilla greater than dermal eye opening
