Espinhos dorsais (total) : 0; Raios dorsais (total) : 65 - 74; Espinhos anais: 0; Raios anais : 51 - 60. Body brownish, 2 conspicuous ocelli above and below lateral line and 1 or 2 ocelli on posterior part of straight section of lateral line, a dark blotch at junction of straight and curved portions of lateral line. Upper profile of head distinctly notched in front of upper eye. A line connecting base of first dorsal-fin ray and posterior nostril on eyed side crosses maxilla. Origin of dorsal fin slightly before anterior margin of upper eye and just above or behind posterior nostril on blind side. Pectoral fin on ocular side with 11-12 soft rays (Ref 9774).
Occurs in estuaries and offshore over sand or mud bottoms (Ref. 9563). Feeds on various benthic animals (Ref. 9774). Marketed fresh (Ref. 9774) and is considered an excellent food fish.
