Max length : 27.6 cm TL পুরুষ/ লিঙ্গ অনিধর্ারিত ; (Ref. 126292); common length : 15.0 cm SL পুরুষ/ লিঙ্গ অনিধর্ারিত ; (Ref. 188); সবের্াচ্চ প্রকাশিত ওজন : 247.00 g (Ref. 126292)
পৃষ্ঠীয় কাঁটা (মোট ) : 0; পৃষ্ঠীয় নরম পাখনা দন্ড (মোট ) : 13 - 21; পায়ূ কাঁটা : 0; পায়ূর নরম পাখনা্তুন্ড: 12 - 23. Body moderately deep, belly rather rounded, scutes not prominent. Distinguished from A. sirm by the absence of spots along the flank (gold in life, black on preservation) and fewer lower gill rakers. Closely resembles A. leiogaster, which has more lower gill rakers. Round-bodied Sardinella species have i 8 pelvic fin rays and more than 100 lower gill rakers.
Forms schools in coastal waters. Feeds on copepods, Mysis and other elements in the zooplankton. Used as bait in the tuna fishery.
