Descrição suscinta
Chaves de identificação | Morfologia | Morfometria
Espinhos dorsais (total) : 0; Raios dorsais (total) : 12 - 14; Espinhos anais: 0; Raios anais : 8 - 11; Vértebras: 47 - 49. Branchiostegal rays: 10-12.
Body shape (shape guide): elongated.
Adults are epipelagic in coastal waters (Ref. 9300), also enter neritic zone (Ref. 36606). Capable of leaping out of the water and gliding for considerable distances above the water (Ref. 9300). Oviparous, with planktonic larvae (Ref. 36606). Eggs are attached to one another and to kelp and other floating objects via long filaments (Ref. 36606).
