Etymology: Thryssa: Greek, thrissa, -es = shad (Ref. 45335).
Eponymy: Dr Francis Hamilton né Buchanan (1762–1829) was an ichthyologist and botanist who qualified as a physician at Glasgow (1783) and was to have been a ship’s surgeon, but ill- health that year prevented him taking up the post. [...] (Ref. 128868), visit book page.

Ambiente: milieu / zona climatica / distribuzione batimetrica / gamma di distribuzione
Ecologia
marino; acqua dolce; salmastro pelagic-neritic; amfidromo (Ref. 51243); distribuzione batimetrica 8 - 12 m (Ref. 127396). Tropical; 37°N - 28°S, 47°E - 154°E
Indo-Pacific: Persian Gulf eastward to Myanmar, Andamans and Penang; Taiwan south to Arafura Sea (Ref. 9819), the northern coasts of Australia and Papua New Guinea; Sarawak; a record from the Bonin Islands; presumably the Philippines; perhaps not eastward to Vanuatu, etc.
Lunghezza alla prima maturità / Dimensione / Peso / Età
Maturità: Lm 16.6  range ? - ? cm
Max length : 27.0 cm SL maschio/sesso non determinato; (Ref. 30691); Età massima riportata: 4 anni (Ref. 127396)
Spine dorsali (totale) : 0; Spine anali: 0; Raggi anali molli: 32 - 39. Belly with 23 to 26 keeled scutes from isthmus to anus. Tip of snout above level of eye center, usually about level of upper rim of eye. Maxilla short or moderate; first supra-maxilla small, oval. A dark blotch behind upper part of gill opening.
Body shape (shape guide): fusiform / normal; Cross section: compressed.
Coastal pelagic (Ref. 68964). Presumably schooling, inshore and entering estuaries. More precise data needed, based on correct identifications. If this is the species being referred to in Ref. 6841, then the principal food of the young would be prawns and copepods, supplemented by polychaetes and amphipods. Minimum depth range from Ref. 137633.
