Épines dorsales (Total) : 7; Rayons mous dorsaux (Total) : 15 - 16; Épines anales: 1; Rayons mous anaux: 15 - 16. Scales in longitudinal series about 160 (Ref. 27974). With a continuous dorsal fin, and dorsal and anal fins joined with caudal fin (Ref. 26938).
Body shape (shape guide): eel-like.
Adults prefer muddy bays and estuaries; encountered in fresh water (Ref. 13628), with a salinity range of 0.0 to 25.5 ppt (Ref. 97140). Also found offshore on muddy bottoms, off mouths of large rivers. Largest goby in the Caribbean, and the only one with this distinctive eel-like shape (Ref. 26938).
