从南非海岸而来的鱼类

南非吉氏鯡為輻鰭魚綱鲱形目鲱科的其中一種，分布於非洲莫三比克至南非淡水流域，體長可達10公分，棲息在河川下游、潟湖，成群活動，以浮游生物為食，可做為食用魚。

纲: 真骨鱼纲
目: 鲱形目
科: Ehiravidae
属: Gilchristella
最大体长: 9 cm
体型: fusiform
分布: Africa: Lake Piti, Mozambique, along south and east coasts of South Africa to Saldanha Bay (Ref. 188 , 3509 ), and as far north as the Olifants River on the west coast (Ref. 7248 ), possibly to mouth of Orange River (Ref. 188 , 3259 ). Also reported from Madagascar (Ref. 3509 , 13333 ), but its presence is not confirmed; it is probably based on confusion with Sauvagella madagascariensis , while Gilchristella aestuaria does not occur in Madagascar (Ref. 33664 ). Reported occurrence in India (Ref. 32693 ) is of dubious validity (Ref. 33664 ). Currently a single species, but at least two forms, possibly different species, are known (Ref. 52193 ).
