Spine dorsali (totale) : 5 - 8; Raggi dorsali molli (totale) : 8 - 10; Spine anali: 1; Raggi anali molli: 10 - 13. Free edge of premaxilla densely covered with minute shagreen denticles. Coronoid process of dentary not rounded as in other Hypoatherina species (Ref. 9760). Body covered by large round scales, head is nude except opercle is covered by scales. Silver white colored body (Ref. 41252).
