Swim bladder large with two anterior extensions diverging to terminate on either side of the basioccipital above the anditory capsule. two posterior tapering extensions of the swim bladder penetrating into the caudal region, one usually longer than the other similar with S. sihama, but differed in detail. Genetic analysis also showed strong interspecific differentiation among the six Sillago species with two posterior extensions of the swim bladder and other five Sillago species in coastal waters of China (Ref. 129457).
