Short description Morphology | Morphometrics

Dorsal spines (total): 9; Dorsal soft rays (total): 22-25; Anal spines : 3; Anal soft rays : 18 - 21. This species is distinguished by the following characters: adipose eyelid well developed and completely covering eye except for a vertical slit centred on pupil; shoulder girdle (cleithrum) margin smooth, without papillae; terminal dorsal and anal rays finlet-like in adults, about twice length of adjacent rays and a little more separated but joined by interradial membrane; lateral line gently arched anteriorly, with junction of curved and straight parts below vertical from sixth to eighth soft rays of second dorsal fin; scales in curved part of lateral line 39 to 57; straight part with 0 to 10 scales and 36 to 49 scutes; a black spot, slightly smaller than eye, on upper margin of opercle and adjacent area of shoulder; dorsal and caudal fins dusky greenish yellow; anal fin pale yellow (Ref. 9894 ).

Biology     Glossary (e.g. epibenthic)

Adults inhabit mangroves and coastal bays in pelagic waters (Ref. 58302 ). They form schools to about 50 m in inshore waters (Ref. 9894 ), or singly (Ref. 48635 ). Are mainly diurnal. They feed mainly on crustaceans and planktonic invertebrates such as copepods, including cephalopods (Ref. 5213 , 90102 ). They swim fast in midwater in pursuit of zooplankton (Ref. 48635 ).

Estimates based on models

Preferred temperature (Ref. 123201 ): 23.8 - 29.1, mean 28 °C (based on 2048 cells). Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804 ):  PD 50 = 1.0000   [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high]. Bayesian length-weight: a=0.01349 (0.01197 - 0.01520), b=2.96 (2.93 - 2.99), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this species (Ref. 93245 ). Trophic level (Ref. 69278 ):  4.2   ±0.5 se; based on diet studies. Resilience (Ref. 120179 ):  High, minimum population doubling time less than 15 months (K=0.58-1.00; Fec=63,000-161,000 (batch fecundity)). Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153 ):  Low vulnerability (18 of 100). Climate Vulnerability (Ref. 125649 ):  Moderate to high vulnerability (47 of 100). Price category (Ref. 80766 ):   Medium . Nutrients (Ref. 124155 ):  Calcium = 79.4 [45.4, 166.2] mg/100g; Iron = 1.04 [0.59, 1.83] mg/100g; Protein = 20 [19, 21] %; Omega3 = 0.193 [0.120, 0.326] g/100g; Selenium = 33.1 [17.7, 62.5] μg/100g; VitaminA = 87.6 [28.1, 279.3] μg/100g; Zinc = 1.17 [0.79, 1.61] mg/100g (wet weight); based on nutrient studies.
