Etymology: Stolephorus: Greek, stole, -es = garment + Greek, pherein = to carry (Ref. 45335).
Environment: milieu / climate zone / depth range / distribution range
Ecologia
marino; salmastro; amfidromo (Ref. 51243); distribuzione batimetrica 0 - 50 m (Ref. 189). Tropical; 25°N - 9°S, 80°E - 113°E (Ref. 189)
Eastern Indian Ocean: northern part of Bay of Bengal. Western Pacific: Gulf of Thailand, Java Sea to at least Kalimantan.
Size / Peso / Age
Maturity: Lm ?  range ? - ? cm
Max length : 7.5 cm SL maschio/sesso non determinato; (Ref. 189)
Spine dorsali (totale): 0; Spine anali 0; Raggi anali molli: 18 - 19. Belly with 4 to 7 small needle-like pre-pelvic scutes; a small pre-dorsal spine and another on the pelvic scute. Maxilla tip pointed, reaching to or beyond hind border of pre-operculum, the latter concave, indented near maxilla tip. Anal fin short, with origin below about middle of dorsal fin base. A double pigment line on back behind dorsal fin.
Presumed coastal, pelagic and schooling, but evidently tolerates lowered salinities (e.g. in the Godavari estuary, India; Songkla Lake, Thailand and Barito River estuary, Indonesia) and possibly such places are its main habitat. More data needed.

Estimates based on models
Preferred temperature (Ref.
123201): 27.9 - 29.3, mean 28.8 °C (based on 456 cells).
Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref.
82804): PD
50 = 0.5000 [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].
Bayesian length-weight: a=0.00562 (0.00259 - 0.01222), b=3.18 (3.00 - 3.36), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this (Sub)family-body shape (Ref.
