বাস্তুসংস্থান
সামুদ্রিক; মহাসাগরে বিচরনক্ষম (Ref. 51243); গভীরতার পরিসীমা 20 - 200 m (Ref. 28016). Tropical; 25°N - 7°N, 57°E - 81°E (Ref. 54872)
Indian Ocean: northern and western parts only, Gulf of Aden, Gulf of Oman, but apparently not Red Sea or the Persian Gulf, eastward to southern part of India, on eastern coast to Andhra; possibly to the Andaman Islands. Thus, studies pertaining to this species from the Philippines or Indonesia probably refer to Sardinella lemuru.

Max length : 23.0 cm SL পুরুষ/ লিঙ্গ অনিধর্ারিত ; (Ref. 188); common length : 20.0 cm SL পুরুষ/ লিঙ্গ অনিধর্ারিত ; (Ref. 188); সবের্াচ্চ প্রকাশিত ওজন : 200.00 g (Ref. 4883); সর্বোচ্চ উলি্ল্লখিত বয়স : 3 বৎসর (Ref. 3689)
পৃষ্ঠীয় কাঁটা (মোট ) : 0; পৃষ্ঠীয় নরম পাখনা দন্ড (মোট ) : 13 - 21; পায়ূ কাঁটা : 0; পায়ূর নরম পাখনা্তুন্ড: 12 - 23; কশেরুকা : 45 - 49. Body sub-cylindrical; a faint golden spot behind gill opening, followed by a faint golden mid-lateral line; a distinct black spot at hind border of gill cover (absence of pigment). Distinguished from all clupeids in the northern Indian Ocean by its pelvic fin ray count of i 8; from S. neglecta and S. lemuru by its longer head and more lower gill rakers. No prominent keel. See also Refs. 3683, 818 and 393 .
Coastal pelagic (Ref. 68964). Forms schools in coastal waters and strongly migratory. Feeds mainly on phytoplankton (especially diatoms) and small crustaceans (Ref. 30573). Breeds once a year off western coasts of India when temperatures and salinity are low during the southwest monsoon months. Spawning peaks in August-September. Occurs at temperatures of 22.0-28.0 °C (Ref. 3689). Marketed fresh, dried and dried-salted. Also sold smoked and canned (Ref. 9987). Also made into fish meal and fish balls.
Spawning usually takes place at night (Ref. 810).
