Espinhos dorsais (total) : 7 - 8; Raios dorsais moles (total) : 8 - 10; Espinhos anais: 3; Raios anais moles: 8 - 11. Diagnosis: Ambassis dussumieri has the following combination of characters: supraorbital spines 1-5, usually 3-4; rostral spine present; rear margin of preopercle smooth (at least dorsally); interopercle edge smooth; two rows of cheek scales; predorsal scales 13-16; lateral line discontunuous; lower gill rakers 22-25; pectoral-fin rays 14-16 (Ref. 50956).
Occurs in estuarian and coastal areas but also in freshwaters (Ref. 57749). Generally occurs in the seas and estuaries, but also found in rivers within tidal influence (Ref. 4833). Also Ref. 43640.
