; zoet water benthopelagisch. Tropical
Africa: widespread in West-Central Africa (Ref. 81639). Also known from the Dja River (middle Congo River basin)(Ref. 81639) and the Cross River in Cameroon (Ref. 51193, 81282). Reported from around Dundo (middle Congo River basin, Angola) (Ref. 81639), but questionable as specimens are identified as Barbus sp. aff. progenys (Ref. 11970).

Estimates based on models
Fylogenetische diversiteitsindex (Ref.
82804): PD
50 = 0.5000 [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].
Bayesian length-weight: a=0.00427 (0.00195 - 0.00935), b=3.11 (2.90 - 3.32), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this (Sub)family-body shape (Ref.
93245).
Trofisch niveau (Ref.
69278): 3.2 ±0.5 se; based on size and trophs of closest relatives
Weerstandsvermogen (Ref.
120179): Hoog, minimale populatieverdubbelingstijd minder dan 15 maanden (Preliminary K or Fecundity.).
Fishing Vulnerability (Ref.
59153): Low vulnerability (10 of 100).
