Tamanho / Peso / Idade
Maturity: Lm ?  range ? - ? cm
Max length : 22.0 cm SL macho/indeterminado; (Ref. 9822); peso máx. Publicado: 44.25 g (Ref. 124713)
Espinhos dorsais (total) : 0; Espinhos anais: 0; Raios anais moles: 46 - 56. Belly with 18 to 20 (rarely 17 or 21) + 7 (sometimes 8) = 25 to 27 keeled scutes from isthmus to anus. Lower gill rakers with the serrae uneven, with slight or sometimes distinct clumps of larger serrae. Pectoral filament moderate, reaching back to base of 9th to 21st anal fin ray.
Presumably schooling and occurring mostly in coastal waters, but also entering estuaries (Ref. 11230) (e.g. the Hooghly and Godavari in India) and penetrating at least 20 km up the Godavari, tolerating salinities as low as 8.7 ppt. Feeds on prawn, copepods, crustacean larvae, mollusks and fishes. Fairly common (Ref. 189).
