Body short, much compressed, deep, considerably arched on the back. 
Head narrow below, broader and flattened on the crown, length equal depth 
of body, or one third of the length from snout to caudal. Snout short, nar- 
row, somewhat pointed. Mouth medium, narrow, lower jaw longer, upper 
very protractile. Teeth conical, hooked, outer series larger, in open order ; 
pharyngeal few in number, hooked, bearing a shoulder. Eye large, one third 
of head, three fourths of interorbital space. Dorsal origin half way from 
the middle of the eye to the base of the caudal ; rays strong, spinelike, fourth 
or fifth above the first of the anal. Intestine short. 
Light olivaceous, silvery below, brown on top of head; with about nine 
silvery bands across the flank, more distinct toward the tail; a darker band 
across the bases of the caudal rays. On young specimens the sides are more 
silvery and the bands more distinct and numerous. 
This species differs from the other Funduli in the greater compression of 
the body and the stronger dorsal rays. The individual described had a 
length of one and three eighths inches, 
Texas.
