Short description
Claves de identificación | Morfología | Morfometría
Radios blandos dorsales (total) : 6; Espinas anales: 3 - 4; Radios blandos anales: 5 - 7; Vértebra: 30 - 33. This species can be distinguished from all congeners by having numerous dark spots scattered on the body, and rounded caudal-fin lobes (vs. pointed lobes) (Ref. 128485).
Prefers rheophilic habitats, with swift-flowing waters (Ref. 128485).
