Description D XII-XIV (XIII), 12-14 (14); A III, 6-8 (8); P1 17-19 (18), 4-9 (6) simple; lateral-line pores 30-34 (31), scales 42-57; infraorbital spines 2-10 (9); gill rakers 29-34 (8-10 + 21-24) (31:9+22); vertebrae 27 (10+17); pyloric caeca 9-12. Caeca bifurcating just anteriorly to ventral sucker, 151 (140-160) long by 18 (16-21) wide. Here the Roman poet contrasts his vision of civic renewal against the designs of greedy opportunists to control the state: "Sollicitant alii remis freta caeca, ruuntque / In ferrum, penetrant aulas et limina regum" (Some weary the blind seas with oars and rush upon the sword, they advance to the halls and palaces of kings) (504-05). |
