This species is distinguished by the following characters: head longer than, or nearly as long as, broad; tooth patches are posterior to premaxillary band touch at midline; relatively long and thin maxillary barbel, extending at least to pectoral fin spine origin (longer in females); dorsal fin spine length more than 70% of its height; pectoral-fin spine at vertical extends at most to hind edge of dorsal fin base; deeply forked caudal fin with moderately slender, with pointed lobes, upper lobe longer; caudal peduncle approximately twice as long as deep; 11-14 gill-rakers on anterior face of first arch; upper two-thirds of body darkened, some lateral speckling and belly stark white; median anterior cranial fontanelle (of exposed skull) elongate and bullet-shaped; smooth and shallow median cranial depression, deepest posteriorly at frontal/supraoccipital suture. 10-12 pectoral fin rays; 51-52 (17 precaudal, 34-35 caudal) total vertebrae.

褐色到略灰色或绿褐色的背面, 微白色的在腹部与侧面上; 腹部的中线微白色的而且从不有颜色。
Generally found in large shoals on muddy bottoms in turbid waters, usually on the coastline and estuaries. Also found in rivers (Ref. 3976). Feed on crayfish, small fish, and crabs (Ref. 27121). Considered a nuisance of shore and ski-boat anglers in southern Africa as little else is caught (Ref. 12484). Spines are poisonous and wounds should be treated immediately. Marketed smoked (Ref. 36731).
通常在混浊的水域中的泥底部上发现于大群鱼群了, 通常在海岸线与河口上。 也发现于河。 (参考文献 3976) 吃小龙虾,小鱼与螃蟹。 (参考文献 27121) 当一点点别的被捕捉的时候,被认为是一个在非洲南部中的海岸讨厌的东西与雪橇船垂钓者了。 (参考文献 12484) 棘是有毒的,而且创伤应该紧邻处理。 在市场上销售烟熏。 (参考文献 36731)
