- Setipinna taty (Valenciennes, 1848) Figure 3E Material examined. MALAYSIA • 1, 141 mm TL; Kedah State, Merbok, Pompang Sungai Merbok; 05.664°N, 100.381°E; 6 Dec. 2018; Danial H. Zainal Abidin, Norli F.M.A.H. Alshari leg.; USMFC (82) 00047. Identification. A moderate sized species of anchovy (maximum SL <200 mm); body strongly laterally compressed; longer than deeper; very large mouth, its corner well behind the eye; anal fin rays 18 or 19; belly strongly keeled with 22–27 prepelvic scutes and 11 or 12 postpelvic scutes; gill rakers 18–20 only (on first gill arch); scales present on dorsal and anal fins; pectoral fin with a long filament reaching the posterior half of the anal fin; body uniformly silver sometimes orangish; no silver longitudinal stripe; no dark pigment line on back (Whitehead et al. 1988). The presence of a long pectoral filament makes it easy to separate S. taty from other species of anchovy recorded from the Merbok estuary. Setipinna taty is a predominantly coastal marine species although commonly frequenting brackish ecosystems of this region; it does not seem to form large school. Otherwise, widely distributed in the Indo-West Pacific region (Whitehead et al. 1988).
