Madurez: Lm ?, range 18 - ? cm
Max length : 55.0 cm TL macho / no sexado; (Ref. 40637); common length : 30.0 cm TL macho / no sexado; (Ref. 3702); peso máximo publicado: 2.6 kg (Ref. 40637); edad máxima reportada: 5 años (Ref. 12193)
Adults occur usually over mud and sandy mud bottoms in coastal waters and in estuaries where the nursery and feeding grounds are located. They feed mainly on worms, crustaceans and fishes. An excellent foodfish. Sold fresh and frozen; eaten fried, broiled, microwaved and baked (Ref. 9988).
