Maturity: Lm 23.0, range 22 - 24 cm
Max length : 75.0 cm TL mâle / non sexé; (Ref. 5284); common length : 30.0 cm TL mâle / non sexé; (Ref. 3287)
Épines dorsales (Total): 2 - 6; Rayons mous dorsaux (Total): 41-46; Épines anales 2; Rayons mous anaux: 35 - 40; Vertèbres: 24. Deep-bodied and strongly compressed fishes. Lateral line ends in weakly-developed scutes on the caudal peduncle. Pelvic fins lost in individuals over 9 cm. Color is brown above, silvery-white below. The anterior parts of the dorsal and anal fins bluish-gray. The other fins yellowish.
Adults inhabit coastal areas with muddy substrate. Found near the bottom during daytime and near the surface at night. They also enter estuaries (Ref. 1479). Normally form large schools (Ref. 5213). Swim on its side near the surface (Ref. 3197). Feed on zooplankton (Ref. 30573). Excellent food fish (Ref. 3197); marketed fresh, may be dried or salted (Ref. 5284).
