Size / Gewicht / Alter
Maturity: Lm ? range ? - ? cm
Max length : 33.0 cm SL Männchen/unbestimmt; (Ref. 124713); max. veröff. Gewicht: 127.32 g (Ref. 124713)
Rückenflossenstacheln (insgesamt) : 0; Afterflossenstacheln: 0; Afterflossenweichstrahlen: 80. Body tapering, belly rounded before pelvic fins, with 12 to 15 + 22 to 29 = 36 to 44 keeled scutes from isthmus to anus. Maxilla long, reaching to or beyond base of the first pectoral fin ray. Pectoral fin with 7 filaments. All other species with a long maxilla have only 6 pectoral filaments.
Occurs in coastal waters and estuaries, presumably with a biology similar to that of other members of the genus. Feed on zooplankton, small insects, crustaceans, and fish (Ref. 5258).
