meet at the genitalia but from navel to genitalia an mid-ventral line they do not meet and this is plain - from the genitalia backward to pleura on the ventral base the light & dark markings are about equal.
There as a patch of dark about five feet long & two feet wide (irregular) from the posterior insertion of dorsal forward, on the left side.
Right ramus of mandible is gray - lighter than the top of the head (which is the same color as the back of the body). On throat (median) are a few small ash colored markings. On the folds white markings come down from root of each fin diagonally backward & downward directed toward navel but only a few scattered ones reach navel. There are only a very few small scattered white markings on very mid-ventral line forward of navel - there are a few ashy markings on breast between fins but no white ones - No white patch below fins - Dorsal is lined as usual - the out-edge is very light - almost white -
