Duri punggung (Keseluruhan (total)) : 2; duri punggung lunak (Keseluruhan (total)) : 5 - 6; Duri dubur: 0; Sirip dubur lunak: 9; vertebrata, bertulang belakang: 34. Diagnosis: It differs from all other species of the genus Zaireichthys in the strongly rounded caudal fin, adipose fin reaching procurrent rays of caudal, and more closely spaced nostrils, closer together than distance of posterior nostril from eye (Ref. 86935). Further, it has a greatly expanded oral musculature, giving the head a characteristically bulbous appearance, and greatly enlarged jaw teeth (Ref. 51287).
Although the habitat was very rocky, specimens were only collected on the edge of a sandy area (Ref. 51287).
