पृष्ठीय सौफट रेज़ (सम्पूर्ण) : 10 - 11; ऐनल सौफट रेज़: 20 - 25; जानवरों की रीड़ का जोड़: 31 - 33. Astyanax tamiahua is distinguished from other congeners in Veracruz and northern Mexico by the following characters: body deeper, mean 35.9% SL (vs. mean 33.9% SL in A. argentatus); head length, more than 26% SL (vs. 26% or less in A. acatlanensis, A. argentatus and A. rioverde); in lateral view, supraoccipital slightly concave (vs. angled in A. finitimus); infraorbital II, triangular with an angled base (vs. with a long convex base in A. argentatus and A. mexicanus); first dorsal pterygiophore, rostral edge angled (vs. curved in A. argentatus and A. mexicanus) (Ref. 118583).
