Etymology: pankilopteryx: The specific name, pankilopteryx, is from the Greek, pan (all), ankilos (hooked), and pteryx (fins), in reference to the presence of hooks on all fins in males (Ref. 56145).
Eponymy: Dr William J Moenkhaus (1871–1947) was an American geneticist and ichthyologist who became Professor of Physiology at Indiana University Medical School (1904–1941), where he was Eigenmann’s colleague. [...] (Ref. 128868), visit book page.

Short description
Chiavi di identificazione | Morfologia | Morfometria
Moenkhausia pankilopteryx is distinguished from its congeners primarily
by the putative autapomorphic presence of bony hooks on all fins of mature males. It is
further distinguished from nearly all other members of the genus by the combination of
37–41 pored scales in the lateral line; a caudal-peduncle spot; a deep body, 43.3–51.0 %
SL; two humeral spots, of which the first is black, larger and vertically elongate, and the
second is dark, very diffuse, and not always visible; two to three maxillary teeth, and analfin rays ii–iv, 24–27 (Ref. 56145).
Body shape (shape guide): short and / or deep.
