Short description
Morfologia | Morfometria
Spine dorsali (totale): 8; Raggi dorsali molli (totale): 9-11; Spine anali 3; Raggi anali molli: 8 - 9; Vertebre: 24. Adults have a single supraorbital spine, a short-based, deeply notched dorsal fin, and are transparent and silvery (Ref. 33616).
Occurs in lentic and lotic freshwater, as well as in mangrove areas (Ref. 7300). A small schooling species also found in estuaries and coastal marine waters (Ref. 33616).
