Short description Claves de identificación | Morfología | Morfometría

Radios blandos dorsales (total) : 8 - 11; Radios blandos anales: 9 - 11.

Occurs in coastal zones, also found in oasis pools with hypersaline to fresh water (Ref. 3788). Forms schools. Chiefly a herbivorous species (Ref. 13530). Spawn in areas where roots of hyacinth or other floating plants abound (Ref. 44327). Not a seasonal killifish. Very difficult to maintain in aquarium (Ref. 27139).
