Etymology: Herklotsichthys: After Janus Adrian Herklots, Australian ichthyologist, 1820-1872.
Eponymy: Dr Geoffrey Alton Craig Herklots (1902–1986) was a British biologist, botanist and ornithologist at the University of Hong Kong (1928–1941). [...] H E Goto was an entomologist who was at the Zoology Department, Imperial College of Science and Technology, University of London, and was the Director of Wongratana’s studies in London.

Size / Weight / umur
Kematangan: Lm ?  range ? - ? cm
Max length : 9.0 cm SL jantan/; (Ref. 188); common length : 8.0 cm SL jantan/; (Ref. 188)
Duri punggung (Keseluruhan (total)) : 0; duri punggung lunak (Keseluruhan (total)) : 13 - 21; Duri dubur: 0; Sirip dubur lunak: 12 - 23. Distinguished from most other Australian Herklotsichthys by lacking spots on the flank, except for a single dark spot behind gill cover and lacking elongate wing-like scales underneath the normal paired pre-dorsal scales. Lacks the 3 distinct dark lines along upper flank; no dark tip to dorsal fin.
Body shape (shape guide): fusiform / normal; Cross section: compressed.
Schools in coastal waters and appears to enter estuaries, if not to ascend some way up to rivers.
