Short description
Bestämningsnycklar | Morfologi | Morfometri
Taggstrålar i ryggfenan (totalt) : 7; Mjukstrålar i ryggfenan (totalt) : 7 - 8; Taggstrålar i analfenan: 1; Mjukstrålar i analfenan: 8; Ryggkotor: 26. This species is distinguished from its congeners by the following set of characters: D2
modally I,8, A I,8, pectoral fin rays modally 1,5; longitudinal scales 34-35, predorsal scales 18-21; first dorsal fin rounded, no filamentous spinous ray. Colouration: body with seven distinct black stripes, cheek and operculum with blackish brown network surrounding of 5-7 rounded, bright yellow spots, first dorsal fin with a somewhat horizontally broad black blotch, basal region of caudal fin membrane has a vertical black bar or two separate brownish black spots (Ref. 118215).
This species is rare and has been found only in low salinity waters (0.1-0.4 psu) in the estuaries of northeast Taiwan (Ref. 118215).
