Notes

Identification to species level follows Zawadzki et al. (2013) and Rapp Py-Daniel (1988) based on the following characters: greater than three (around eight to ten) predorsal plates limiting the posterior border of the supraoccipital; elongated caudal peduncle; caudal fin strongly emarginated; dark spots on lighter background; and lower lobe of caudal fin darker than upper lobe.

Four individuals were caught by hand from woody substrates at the margin of the main river (sampling sites NH04 and NH08). An example of a live specimen is pictured in Fig. 18.
