Korte beschrijving
Determinatiesleutels | Morfologie | Morfometrie
Distinguished from all other congeners by the combination of the following characters: strongly forked caudal fin; caudal fin usually with four to five dark, broad, regularly spaced V-shaped bars; dorsal-fin origin usually anterior to pelvic-fin origin; moderate/large size up to 4.4 cm SL; lamina circularis composed of fused seventh and eighth pectoral rays sometimes forming small dorsally projecting flange but never large flange with serrations (Ref. 83671).
Facultative air-breathing in the genus (Ref. 126274); Mostly found in slow-flowing streams with vegetation (Ref. 83671).
