Short description
Claves de identificación | Morfología | Morfometría
Espinas dorsales (total) : 0; Espinas anales: 0; Radios blandos anales: 16 - 19. Body slender. Snout moderate, about 3/4 eye diameter; maxilla rather long, tip pointed, reaching to or almost to edge of gill cover; gill cover canals of walkeri-type. Anal fin short, its origin below or a little before midpoint of dorsal fin base. A silver stripe along flank, less than eye diameter.
Pelagic, nearshore (Ref. 96339). Occurs in coastal waters (Ref. 189). Probably not entering estuaries (Ref. 189).
