Könsmognad: Lm ?, range 1 - ? cm Max length : 9.2 cm TL hane/ej könsbestämd; (Ref. 8); common length : 8.0 cm TL hane/ej könsbestämd; (Ref. 8)
Common total length: 6.0 to 8.0 cm (Ref. 8). This is an oceanic, demersal species found up to 130 meters in depth (Ref. 103831). Occurs in unconsolidated sublittoral sediments (Ref. 105332). Bottom sand or mud and shells (Ref. 8). Also found in seagrass (Ref. 102062). Preyed upon bony fishes (Refs. 34001, 105209, 105210). Known as a filter-feeder and zooplanktivore (Ref. 128410). In general, the majority of penaeids are omnivorous or detritus feeders (Ref. 105082).
