Etymology: Coilia: Greek, koilia, -as = abdomen, hollow (Ref. 45335).

Short description Identification keys | Morphology | Morphometrics

Dorsal spines (total): 0; Anal spines: 0; Anal soft rays: 80. Body tapering, belly rounded before pelvic fins, with 13 to 15 + 20 to 25 = 34 to 40 keeled scutes from isthmus to anus. Maxilla long, reaching to or beyond base of first pectoral fin ray. Lower gill rakers rarely 29. Pectoral fin with 6 long filaments, with the branched rays longer than those of pelvic fin.

A riverine species. There is insufficient data to show if this species occurs along coasts or whether it is estuarine and not freshwater (Ref. 9822). Found in estuaries and tidal reaches of rivers (Ref.12693).

Estimates based on models

Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804): PD₅₀ = 0.5001 [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].

Bayesian length-weight: a=0.00282 (0.00126 - 0.00632), b=3.10 (2.92 - 3.28), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this Genus-body shape (Ref. 93245).

Trophic level (Ref. 69278): 3.7 ±0.58 se; based on food items.

Resilience (Ref. 120179): High, minimum population doubling time less than 15 months (Preliminary K or Fecundity.).

Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153): Low vulnerability (14 of 100).

Price category (Ref. 80766): Medium.
