পরিপক্কতা : Lm ? range ? - ? cm
Max length : 22.0 cm SL পুরুষ/ লিঙ্গ অনিধর্ারিত ; (Ref. 91762)
পৃষ্ঠীয় কাঁটা (মোট ) : 0; পৃষ্ঠীয় নরম পাখনা দন্ড (মোট ) : 18 - 20; পায়ূ কাঁটা : 0; পায়ূর নরম পাখনা্তুন্ড: 12 - 13; কশেরুকা : 50. Numerous branchiostegal rays (11 to 15); without pre-and post pelvic scutes; W-shaped pelvic scute; rectangular pre-maxillae; pelvic fins less advanced and the isthmus with lateral flanges or `shoulders' as compared to Dussumieria.

Mainly an inshore species. Often forms shoals together with pilchard (Ref. 27121). Feeds on larger types of zooplankton (Ref. 27121).
