The surrounding environment has elevated temperatures (39˚-50˚C), low dissolved oxygen concentrations (0.25-5 mg/L) and elevated levels of SO4 (990 to 1015 mg/l). Adults were found mostly in the deepest ponds while juveniles were found schooling in small, shallow ponds (Ref. 120686). Aguilera, G., G.E. Terán, J.M. Mirande, F. Alonso, S. Rometsch, A.

Colouration: presenting eight to eleven irregular blotches along the mid-lateral surface of the body, formed by dark-brown chromatophores, ranging from rounded spots to vertical bars stretching up to three scales in depth (vs. different configuration pattern) (Ref. 120686).
