पृष्ठीय रीढ़ (सम्पूर्ण) : 3 - 5; पृष्ठीय सौफट रेज़ (सम्पूर्ण) : 4 - 7; गुदा कांटा: 1; ऐनल सौफट रेज़: 9 - 13. Premaxilla wide, its ascending process short and lateral process absent. Vomer wide and slightly curved. Mesethmoid absent. Second dorsal fin with no spines and 4-7 soft rays. Pectoral fins with no spines. Midlateral scales 22-26.

Inhabits mangrove swamps and highly saline creeks flowing into estuaries, usually swimming over muddy bottom. Often congregate in large numbers. May be found in hypersaline waters (28-40 ppt) and in relatively high temperatures (22-31°C). Breeding has been achieved in aquaria; the eggs take about two weeks to hatch and young fish reach adulthood in only three months (Ref. 44894). A small but attractive species.
