Dorsale stekels (totaal) : 0; Dorsale zachte stralen (totaal) : 18 - 19; Anale stekels: 0; Anale zachte stralen: 12 - 23. Belly sharply keeled. Flanks silvery without a distinct silver stripe (cf. Platanichthys). Distinguished from R. melanostoma of freshwaters by having more dorsal and pectoral fin rays and total gill rakers; from small Sardinella and Harengula by the evenly rounded hind margin of the gill opening; and from Sprattus fuegensis by having i 6 pelvic fin rays.
Forms schools in coastal waters, apparently inshore but not entering freshwater.
