Duri punggung (Keseluruhan (total)) : 2; duri punggung lunak (Keseluruhan (total)) : 7; Sirip dubur lunak: 37 - 40.
Body shape (shape guide): elongated.
Occurs in medium to large-sized rivers (Ref. 12975). The stomachs of the specimens examined were more or less filled with mollusks, usually bivalves (Ref. 7432). Enters flooded forest (Ref. 9497).
