Descrição breve
Chaves de identificação | Morfologia | Morfometria
Espinhos dorsais (total) : 0; Raios dorsais moles (total) : 18 - 19; Espinhos anais: 0; Raios anais moles: 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.
Body shape (shape guide): fusiform / normal; Cross section: compressed.
Forms schools in coastal waters, apparently inshore but not entering freshwater.
