Etymology: Apistogramma: Greek, apisto = uncertain + Greek, gramma = graphic signal (Ref. 45335); barlowi: Named for George W. Barlow, for his substantial contribution on cichlid fish biology..

Dorsale stekels (totaal) : 14 - 16; Dorsale zachte stralen (totaal) : 6 - 8; Anale stekels: 3 - 4; Anale zachte stralen: 5 - 8. Distinguished from all congeners by the combination of the following characters: over-proportionally large head and mouth with massive jaws and hypertrophic lips in adult males, 3 infraorbital pores; a lyrate caudal fin in adult males with immaculate lemon-yellow lower lobe and vertical rows of spots in its upper bluish hyaline lobe, truncate and immaculate in females; extended first membranes of the dorsal fin, a distinct breast band in basal part of vertical bar 2 and posterior lateral spot in female; and absence of caudal peduncle spot (Ref. 75695).
Appears to be restricted to forest streams, with a preference for fast-flowing, cooler, and crystal-clear, acid to neutral water (Ref. 75695). A reddish morph of this species was collected in a small clearwater igarapé, about 1 meter wide and approximately 30 cm deep, with fine white sandy bottom, no submerged vegetation, rocks or pebbles, a pH of 4.8 at a temperature close to 29°C (Ref. 75695).

Estimates based on models
Fylogenetische diversiteitsindex (Ref.

50 = 0.5000 [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].
Bayesian length-weight: a=0.02188 (0.01030 - 0.04649), b=3.03 (2.84 - 3.22), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this (Sub)family-body shape (Ref.
