Dorsale stekels (totaal) : 7; Dorsale zachte stralen (totaal) : 15 - 16; Anale stekels: 1; Anale zachte stralen: 15 - 16. Scales in longitudinal series about 160 (Ref. 27974). With a continuous dorsal fin, and dorsal and anal fins joined with caudal fin (Ref. 26938).

Adults prefer muddy bays and estuaries; encountered in fresh water (Ref. 13628), with a salinity range of 0.0 to 25.5 ppt (Ref. 97140). Also found offshore on muddy bottoms, off mouths of large rivers. Largest goby in the Caribbean, and the only one with this distinctive eel-like shape (Ref. 26938).

Estimates based on models

Preferred temperature (Ref. 115969): 23.4 - 28, mean 25.9 (based on 452 cells).

Fylogenetische diversiteitsindex (Ref. 82804): PD₅₀ = 0.5312 [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].

Bayesian length-weight: a=0.00102 (0.00046 - 0.00225), b=3.06 (2.88 - 3.24), in cm Total Length, based on all LWR estimates for this body shape (Ref. 93245).

Trofisch niveau (Ref. 69278): 3.8 ±0.5 se; based on size and trophs of closest relatives

Weerstandsvermogen (Ref. 120179): laag, minimale populatieverdubbelingstijd 4,5-14 jaar (Preliminary K or Fecundity.).

Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153): Moderate vulnerability (42 of 100).

Prijsklasse (Ref. 80766): Very high.
