Könsmognad: Lm ?  range ? - ? cm
Max length : 10.5 cm SL hane/ej könsbestämd; (Ref. 188); common length : 8.0 cm SL hane/ej könsbestämd; (Ref. 188)
Taggstrålar i ryggfenan (totalt) : 0; Mjukstrålar i ryggfenan (totalt) : 13 - 21; Taggstrålar i analfenan: 0; Mjukstrålar i analfenan: 12 - 23. Distinguished from most other Australian Herklotsichthys by lacking spots on the flank and lacking elongate wing-like scales underneath the normal paired pre-dorsal scales. Most closely resembles H. castelnaui but has fewer lower gill rakers. Separated from H. gotoi and Herklotsichthys Species C by its black tips to caudal fin and 3 distinct dark lines along upper flank.
Body shape (shape guide): fusiform / normal; Cross section: compressed.
A schooling species found in coastal waters (Ref. 188, 75154).
