Editing Archosargus probatocephalus (section)

==Description==
''Archosargus probatocephalus'' has an oval shaped, deep, laterally compressed body with a small blunt head, the dorsal and ventral profiles of the head being convex. It has moderately sized eyes, a small horizontal mouth and the preorbital bone overlaps the rear of the [[maxilla]]. The teeth at the front of the jaw are broad and flattened, the upper jaw has three rows of molar-like teeth at the sides. The margin of the [[preoperculum]] is smooth, with no serrations or spines. The [[dorsal fin]] is long and not high and is supported by 12 spines, the front spine points towards the front and may be embedded, and 11 soft rays. The [[anal fin]] contains three spines, the second spine being very robust, and 9 or 10 soft rays. The [[pectoral fin]] is long, clearly greater in length than the [[pelvic fin]]s, extending to the level of the middle spine of the anal fin. The [[caudal fin]] is forked.<ref name = STRI>{{cite web |url=https://biogeodb.stri.si.edu/caribbean/en/thefishes/species/3740 |title=Species: Archosargus probatocephalus, Sheepshead, Sheepshead Bream |access-date=27 December 2023 |work=Shorefishes of the Greater Caribbean online information |publisher=[[Smithsonian Tropical Research Institute]]}}</ref> The adults are silvery to greenish-yellow with olive on the upper body.
