Kurzbeschreibung
Bestimmungsschlüssel | Morphologie | Morphometrie
Rückenflossenstacheln (insgesamt) : 0; Rückenflossenweichstrahlen (insgesamt) : 53 - 58; Afterflossenweichstrahlen: 51 - 52; Wirbelzahl: 56. Characterized by a relatively short vomerine tooth plates (3.6-3.9 % HL) and by its relatively long adipose fin (12.7-15.9 % SL) - the longest in Clarias and therefore, is a specific character for C. lamottei. Head is oval-shaped in dorsal outline. Frontal fontanelle long and narrow (`knife-shaped'); occipital fontanelle long and oval-shaped. Suprabranchial organ consists of well developed arborescent structures.
Facultative air-breathing (Ref. 126274); The type locality is situated in a savannah area, in a swamp which completely dries up every year (Ref. 248).
