Etymology: Herklotsichthys: After Janus Adrian Herklots, Australian ichthyologist, 1820-1872.
Eponymy: Dr Geoffrey Alton Craig Herklots (1902–1986) was a British biologist, botanist and ornithologist at the University of Hong Kong (1928–1941). [...] Georg F Losse was a German biologist, ichthyologist, collector and Fishery Officer. [...] (Ref. 128868), visit book page.
Umwelt: Milieu / Klimazone / Tiefenbereich / Verbreitungsgebiet
Ökologie
seewasser pelagic-neritic; tiefenbereich 0 - 50 m (Ref. 188). Subtropical; 31°N - 24°N, 47°E - 57°E (Ref. 188)
Western Indian Ocean: Persian Gulf, possibly also the Red Sea.
Größe / Gewicht / Alter
Geschlechtsreife: Lm ?  range ? - ? cm
Max length : 8.0 cm SL Männchen/unbestimmt; (Ref. 188); common length : 7.0 cm SL Männchen/unbestimmt; (Ref. 188)
Rückenflossenstacheln (insgesamt) : 0; Rückenflossenweichstrahlen (insgesamt) : 13 - 21; Afterflossenstacheln: 0; Afterflossenweichstrahlen: 12 - 23. Closely resembles H. punctatus in shape, but the latter lacks a dark blotch on the dorsal fin and has small dark spots along the back and not on the flank. Distinguished from H. spilurus by its more slender body and spots along the flank. Possibly overlaps range of H. quadrimaculatus, which lacks spots on the flank and has elongate wing-like scales underneath paired pre-dorsal scales.
Body shape (shape guide): fusiform / normal; Cross section: compressed.
A schooling species found in coastal waters. Coastal pelagic (Ref. 68964).
