 | | All four pairs of gill arches in Comephorus baicalensis and C. dybowskii (Comephoridae) are well developed. |
 | | In contrast to other Baikalian cottoids (Cottidae, Abyssocottidae), the slit behind the fourth arch is well preserved and two hemibranchs are present on this arch in the golomyankas. |
 | | These anatomical details are considered to contradict the opinion that Comephoridae may be derived from other Baikalian Cottoidei. |
