Short description
Chiavi di identificazione | Morfologia | Morfometria
Spine dorsali (totale) : 0; Spine anali: 0; Raggi anali molli: 46 - 52. Body moderately slender, belly with 23 to 26 + 11 to 13, total 34 to 38 scutes. Eye large, lower jaw projecting. Dorsal fin origin at about midpoint of body or a little behind; anal fin origin below dorsal fin base. Swim bladder with a single long tube passing back down right side of body above anal fin base.
Occurs in coastal waters, apparently entering estuaries. More data needed, based on better identifications than in the past.
