Etymology: Astyanax: The name of Astyanax, Hector´s son in the Greek mythology (Ref. 45335); keronolepis: Derived from the Greek keronos (meaning beehive), plus lepís (meaning scales), in reference to the resemblance of the reticulation pattern of scales with a beehive.
Eponymy: Astyanax was the son of Hector in Greek mythology. See Homer’s Iliad for details. The reasoning for its use for a genus of characins is not explained. (Ref. 128868), visit book page.

ຄີຫຼັງຂອງປາ (ຄີອ່ອນ) (ທັງໝົດ) : 11; ຄີກົ້ນຂອງປາ: 21; ສັດທີ່ມີກະດູກສັນຫຼັງ: 38. Astyanax keronolepis is distinguished from all other species of Astyanax by the following combination of characters: 9-11 dentary teeth, gradually decreasing in size; high concentration of chromatophores distributed along the scale contour forming a hexagonal pattern, resembling a honeycomb; head heavily covered with tubercles in adults males; midlateral strip expanded anteriorly and tapering posteriorly toward the caudal peduncle; and caudal spot elliptically shaped. In addition, this species differs from most congeners, except from A. taeniatus, A. ribeirae, A. hastatus, A. burgerai, A. giton and A. bahiensis, by its humeral spot shaped like a comma. It can be diagnosed from A. taeniatus by having teeth asymmetrical and with no gap on the dentary symphysis (vs. teeth symmetrical and with a gap on dentary symphysis). It can be differentiated from A. ribeirae, A. hastatus, A. burgerai, A. giton and A. bahiensis by having only one humeral spot (vs. two humeral spots) (Ref. 119398).
Body shape (shape guide): fusiform / normal.
Inhabits streams usually characterized by crystalline and rapid waters with rocks covered by sludge and algae. Feeds predominantly on vegetable matter and occasionally hymenoptera based on gut contents of 20 specimens (Ref. 119398).
