Description synthétique
Clés d'identification | Morphologie | Morphométrie
Épines dorsales (Total) : 15 - 18; Rayons mous dorsaux (Total) : 16 - 20; Rayons mous anaux: 19 - 23; Vertèbres: 46 - 48. Interpelvic process small and bifid. Swim bladder absent. Lateral line gradually curving down toward caudal peduncle. Intestine with 2 folds and 3 limbs. Males with no streaks or spots while females have two alternate series of brown spots on sides. Body entire covered with small scales, no anterior corselet.
Body shape (shape guide): fusiform / normal; Cross section: oval.
It is now extinct outside the Gulf of California. Supports a commercial net fishery close inshore, in estuaries and coastal marshes (Ref. 9987). Its biology is almost completely unknown. This fishery operates on a relict of the original population.
