Description

Figure 25. Suspensorium and opercular bones of Heterotis niloticus (MCZ 50959, adult, unknown SL) in lateral view. A, photograph. B, line drawing. Note the large pores for the preopercular sensory canal and the ossified autopalatine. The element labelled 'dpl + ecp' has been suggested in the past to be a fusion of the dermopalatine and the ectopterygoid, although no ontogenetic evidence supports this (see Character 30). Anterior facing left.
