Dussumieriidae (Round herrings)
Etymology: Dussumieria: In honor of Dussumier, a collaborator of Cuvier, who sent him collections of fishes from the Indian Ocean (Ref. 45335).
More on author: Bleeker.
Environment: milieu / climate zone / depth range / distribution range
Écologie
marin; profondeur 0 - 50 m (Ref. 188). Subtropical; 31°N - 26°S, 32°E - 168°W (Ref. 188)
Indo-Pacific: Suez and western Indian Ocean (the Persian Gulf to Mombasa; possibly to Madagascar) to China, the Arafura Sea (Ref. 9819) and to about Tonga. Previous records of Dussumieria acuta from northeastern Indian Ocean would refer to this species (Ref. 5978).
Taille / Poids / Âge
Maturity: Lm ?  range ? - ? cm
Max length : 20.0 cm SL mâle / non sexé; (Ref. 188)
Épines dorsales (Total) : 0; Rayons mous dorsaux (Total) : 16 - 18; Épines anales: 0; Rayons mous anaux: 14 - 18. Branchiostegal rays more (13 to 17) and no striae on posterior part of scales; pelvic fins more advanced; W-shaped pelvic scute; isthmus with tapering evenly forward; more anal fin rays.
Pelagic inshore (Ref. 68964). The habitat and biology are presumably similar to those of D. acuta from which this species was not distinguished in earlier studies. Marketed fresh, may be dried or salted (Ref. 5284).
