Taille / Poids / Âge
Maturité: Lm ?  range ? - ? cm
Max length : 200 cm TL mâle / non sexé; (Ref. 57402); common length : 150 cm TL mâle / non sexé; (Ref. 3659); poids max. publié: 75.0 kg (Ref. 7386)
Épines dorsales (Total) : 9; Rayons mous dorsaux (Total) : 12 - 13; Épines anales: 3; Rayons mous anaux: 11 - 12. Diagnosis: pectoral fin with 4 threadlike filaments (Ref. 57402, 81658). Pectoral fin inserted very low on body, generally somewhat longer than upper part of fin (Ref. 57402).
Body shape (shape guide): fusiform / normal.
Occurs in shallow coastal waters, over sandy and muddy bottoms, sometimes in brackish habitats (Ref. 57343, 81658). Enters estuaries (Ref. 57402), occasionally caught in fresh water (Ref. 57402, 81658). Very large specimens are only found in marine waters (Ref. 81658). Feeds on crustaceans and fishes (Ref. 10799, 81658). Flesh fairly tasteful (Ref. 57402).
