Short description
Bestämningsnycklar | Morfologi | Morfometri
Taggstrålar i ryggfenan (totalt) : 0; Mjukstrålar i ryggfenan (totalt) : 12 - 18; Taggstrålar i analfenan: 0; Mjukstrålar i analfenan: 16 - 27. Body moderately elongate, belly keeled, with 9 or 10 + 7 or 8 scutes. Snout blunt, pre-maxillae small and toothed, prominent teeth at symphysis and along sides of lower jaw; second supra-maxilla spatulate, about half length of maxilla blade. Pectoral axillary scale less than half length of fin. Last two anal fin rays forming a separate finlet.
Occurs in large lakes or rivers (Ref. 12693). Found in the basin-wide mainstream of the lower Mekong (Ref. 36667). Feeds on planktonic crustaceans (Ref. 33813). Used to produce prahoc and tuk trey (Ref. 12693).
