If each standard counit presentation is a coequalizer, the Eilenberg-Moore comparison functor is full and faithful. An monad algebra morphism α:GB→GC makes εC​Fα equalize FGεB​ and εFGB​; its unique descent is the required morphism B→C. The triangle identities for an adjunction make GεB​ a split epimorphism, so descent has underlying arrow exactly α. Epimorphic cancellation at εB​ proves faithfulness.
