Maturity: Lm ? range ? - ? cm
Max length : 13.0 cm SL mâle / non sexé; (Ref. 188); common length : 10.0 cm SL mâle / non sexé; (Ref. 188)
Épines dorsales (Total) : 0; Rayons mous dorsaux (Total) : 13 - 21; Épines anales: 0; Rayons mous anaux: 12 - 23. Distinguished from most other Australian Herklotsichthys by the presence of elongate wing-like scales beneath normal pre-dorsal scales and the absence of spots along the flank. Closely resembles H. quadrimaculatus in these features, but has more lower gill rakers. Three fine dark lines along upper flank and dorsal fin with distinct pale band separating grey base from black tip.
A schooling species occurring in coastal waters.
