Short description
Κλείδες προσδιορισμού | Μορφολογία | Μορφομετρία
Ραχιαίες άκανθες (συνολικά) : 9 - 11; Μαλακές ραχιαίες ακτίνες (συνολικά) : 20 - 26; Εδρικές άκανθες: 3; Μαλακές εδρικές ακτίνες: 29 - 34; Σπόνδυλοι: 38 - 42. Greenish above but predominately silvery; dark line at base of posterior part of dorsal; fins usually yellowish except for edging of dark on tail fin, and usually a dark spot on edge near anterior end of anal fin (Ref. 6885).
