Korte beschrijving Determinatiesleutels | Morfologie | Morfometrie

Dorsale stekels (totaal) : 9; Dorsale zachte stralen (totaal) : 10; Anale stekels: 3; Anale zachte stralen: 8. Tip of dorsal fin dusky. Premaxillary groove continuous but narrow, bordered by scales anteriorly (Ref. 26938).

Found over soft bottoms of bays and shallow inshore areas, often along sand beaches (Ref. 2850). Enters freshwater (Ref. 7251). Juveniles are encountered in lagoons of mangroves. Omnivorous (Ref. 9303). Marketed fresh but not highly esteemed; processed into fish meal and used as live bait in the snapper fishery (Ref. 3722).
