FBname: Longtail shad
Comments: Schooling in coastal waters and ascending rivers to breed.  Feeds on zooplankton (Ref. 58784).  Presumably its biology is similar to that of <i>T. ilisha</i>, but the fewer gillrakers suggest that it takes larger food organisms.  A protandrous hermaphrodite (Ref. 55367).
