Duri punggung (Keseluruhan (total)) : 11 - 13; duri punggung lunak (Keseluruhan (total)) : 19 - 21; Duri dubur: 2; Sirip dubur lunak: 20 - 22. Body with irregular dusky bands anteriorly; dark marks behind eye (Ref. 4404).
Adults inhabit estuaries. Oviparous. Eggs are demersal and adhesive (Ref. 205), and are attached to the substrate via a filamentous, adhesive pad or pedestal (Ref. 94114). Larvae are planktonic, often found in shallow, coastal waters (Ref. 94114).
