Dorosomatidae (Gizzard shads and sardinellas)
Etymology: piquitinga: Specific name probably after the `piquitinga' of Marcgraf 1648.
Entorno: milieu / zona climática / rango de profundidad / gama de distribución
Ecología
marino; salobre pelagic-neritic; rango de profundidad 0 - 50 m (Ref. 188). Tropical; 13°N - 20°S, 70°W - 32°W (Ref. 188)
Western Atlantic: Nueva Esparta, Venezuela; coasts of Brazil from Racife and Lake Papary near Natal south to Bahia and Espirito Santo); probably occurring throughout northern South America (Ref. 5217).
Tamaño / Peso / Edad
Madurez: Lm ?  range ? - ? cm
Max length : 15.0 cm SL macho / no sexado; (Ref. 188); common length : 12.0 cm SL macho / no sexado; (Ref. 188)
Espinas dorsales (total) : 0; Radios blandos dorsales (total) : 13 - 21; Espinas anales: 0; Radios blandos anales: 12 - 23. Belly sharply keeled; a well-developed first (anterior) supra-maxilla (cf. Platanichthys platana); hind border of gill opening evenly rounded; no retrorse spine on upper part of maxilla (cf. Rhinosardinia). Closely resembles the Pacific L. stolifera, but caudal fin tips not black. The very bright silver stripe along flank distinguishes it from other similar clupeids in the area.
Body shape (shape guide): fusiform / normal; Cross section: compressed.
Occurs inshore, over muddy bottoms and in brackish or hyper-saline littoral lagoons (Ref. 5217). Forms schools.
