Etymology: Hyphessobrycon: Greek, hyphesson, -on, -on = a little smaller + Greek, bryko = to bite (Ref. 45335); zoe: Named for Zo’é, a Tupi speaking people living at the Rio Cuminapanema, a tributary of Rio Curuá which is very close to the area from where this new species is known; noun in apposition.
Eponymy: This refers not to a person, but a people; it is named in honour of the Zo’é, a Tupi-speaking people from the state of Pará, northern Brazil, where the tetra is found. (Ref. 128868), visit book page.

Short description
Chiavi di identificazione | Morfologia | Morfometria
Raggi dorsali molli (totale) : 8 - 9; Raggi anali molli: 17 - 20. This species is distinguished from all congeners except agulha, clavatus, eschwartzae, herbertaxelrodi, klausanni, loretoensis, lucenorum, margitae, metae, mutabilis, peruvianus, vanzolinii, wadai by having a relatively broad diffuse midlateral stripe (vs. a narrow, well-defined midlateral stripe, or midlateral stripe absent); differs from all aforementioned species, except agulha, mutabilis, by having a distinctive caudal peduncle blotch (vs. absent); differs further from clavatus, loretoensis, metae, vanzolinii by having a humeral blotch (vs. absent), and from agulha, herbertaxelrodi, klausanni, lucenorum, margitae, mutabilis by having a lateral broad diffuse stripe only conspicuous after midbody (vs. stripe extended anteriorly to humeral blotch); differs further from agulha by having 5-7 (mode 7) pored lateral-line scales (vs. 10-35, mode 13), and from mutabilis by the conspicuous and irregularly-shaped humeral blotch with vertical and longitudinal components (vs. an inconspicuous and narrow humeral blotch with a single vertically-elongated component) (Ref. 125533).
Reported collection from small forest creeks with rocky/sandy bottom, in a hilly landscape, with altitudes ranging from 330-370 meters a.s.l., in a contact area between savannah and rainforest. Gut content of three specimens contained ant heads, a chironomid larvae, and
unidentified triturated matter (Ref. 125533).
