📚 Nomenclature and Classification
📚 Natural History
Migration
Amphidromous. Refers to fishes that regularly migrate between freshwater and the sea (in both directions), but not for the purpose of breeding, as in anadromous and catadromous species. Sub-division of diadromous. Migrations should be cyclical and predictable and cover more than 100 km.

Trophic Strategy
Inhabits coral reefs . 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. Eggs, larval forms and juveniles occur in lower reaches of mangroves .
