Etymology: Clarias: Greek, chlaros = lively, in reference to the ability of the fish to live for a long time out of water.
Eponymy: Auguste Henri André Duméril (1812–1870), was a physician and zoologist like his father (see next entry) and followed much in his father’s footsteps. [...] (Ref. 128868), visit book page.

簡短描述

背棘 (總數) : 0; 背的軟條 (總數) : 65 - 81; 臀鰭軟條: 51 - 62; 脊椎骨: 57 - 62. Diagnosis: head oval-shaped to rectangular dorsally; snout broadly rounded; eyes more laterally placed; frontal fontanelle extremely long and narrow; occipital fontanelle oval-shaped to rounded; tooth plates extremely broad (Ref. 248). Supraorbital and `dermosphenotic' bones separated; dermosphenotic somewhat reduced and shows a clearly marked notch (Ref. 248, 101841) although this notch is not observed in all specimens (Ref. 101841). Pectoral spine straight and robust; gill rakers relatively long and distantly set; openings of the secondary sensory canals regularly arranged (Ref. 248). Suprabranchial organ reduced to virtually absent (Ref. 248, 101841).
Colouration: preserved fish show uniform colouration: dorsum, flanks and upper side of paired fins dark brown; ventrum and ventral parts of paired fins light grey to beige; no information known on colouration of living specimens (Ref. 248).
頭部橢圓形的到矩形的背面; 吻寬廣地圓的; 眼更側面放置。 額骨囪門非常長而狹窄的; 後頭骨囪門橢圓形的圓。 齒板非常寬大。 眶上的與皮蝶骨的' 硬骨分開; 皮蝶骨的略微縮小的而且顯示一個清楚顯著的凹槽。 胸棘直線與結實的。 鰓耙相當長的而且遠遠地豎立。 事實上被縮小成的鰓前器官不存在。 第二感覺管的開口規則排列的。
Facultative air-breathing (Ref. 126274)
