Eastern Indian Ocean: Western Australia. The western counterpart of Herklotsichthys castelnaui and possibly merely a subspecies.
Tamaño / Peso / Age
Maturity: Lm ?  range ? - ? cm
Max length : 10.5 cm SL macho / no sexado; (Ref. 188); common length : 8.0 cm SL macho / no sexado; (Ref. 188)
Espinas dorsales (total): 0; Radios blandos dorsales (total): 13-21; Espinas anales 0; Radios blandos anales: 12 - 23. Distinguished from most other Australian Herklotsichthys by lacking spots on the flank and lacking elongate wing-like scales underneath the normal paired pre-dorsal scales. Most closely resembles H. castelnaui but has fewer lower gill rakers. Separated from H. gotoi and Herklotsichthys Species C by its black tips to caudal fin and 3 distinct dark lines along upper flank.
A schooling species found in coastal waters (Ref. 188, 75154).
