With 4-5 scales on cheek; 21-24 predorsal scales; scaled dorsal and anal fins; narrow scaleless zone at dorsal midline interrupting Supra-temporal band of scales. Upper peduncular scale rows usually 11 (10-11); lower peduncular scale rows usually 14 or 15 (13-15). Most of body light to silvery blue, paler ventrally. Black blotch at the tip of each caudal-fin lobe bordered proximally by a white band. Presence of a small process on each ventrolateral surface of basioccipital for attachment of Baudelot's ligament.
