Clés d'identification | Morphologie | Morphométrie
Épines dorsales (Total) : 0; Rayons mous dorsaux (Total) : 12 - 18; Épines anales: 0; Rayons mous anaux: 16 - 27. With 5 to 8 unkeeled pre-pelvic scutes, followed by an equally thin pelvic scute, all with slender ascending arms; no post-pelvic scutes. Snout pointed, lower jaw a little prominent, with barely visible teeth in each jaw; second supra-maxilla short, about half length of maxilla blade.
Occurs in estuaries, lagoons and as much as 10 km up rivers, presumably tolerating a wide range of salinity. Reported to feed exclusively on rotifers (Ref. 6028). Marketed fresh or dried salted.
