The body of metamorphosed females is short, more-or-less oval in shape to globular. The length of the head, measured from the tip of the snout to the base of the pectoral fin, is 50–60% SL. The snout is relatively short, usually less than 20% SL. The mouth is large, the opening horizontal or somewhat oblique, the cleft extending past the eye. The oral valve is well developed. The nostrils are set on rounded papillae. The dentition is highly variable among genera: the teeth of Acentrophryne, Borophryne, and Linophryne are long and few, arranged in several oblique longitudinal series; those of Haplophryne and Photocorynus are considerably shorter and more numerous, arranged in several series (for details, see the generic accounts below). The vomer is well toothed in Acentrophryne, Borophryne, and Linophryne, but toothless in Photocorynus and Haplophryne. The first epibranchial is free, not bound to the wall of the pharynx by connective tissue. All four epibranchials are closely bound together by connective tissue. The fourth epibranchial and ceratobranchial are bound to the wall of the pharynx, leaving no opening behind the fourth arch. The proximal one-half of the first ceratobranch
