Taggstrålar i ryggfenan (totalt) : 0; Taggstrålar i analfenan: 0; Mjukstrålar i analfenan: 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).
