Comments: Type locality, Amazonas State, Barcelos, Rio Negro basin, Igarapé do Ingá, right bank tributary of Rio Arara, Rio Unini basin, INPA 35637 (holotype of Scoloplax baileyi, 1.4 cm SL). Found in streams of the Rio Unini, lower Rio Negro basin and a single specimen (MZUSP 34760) found in Anavilhanas, lower Rio Negro basin, suggests a more widespread distribution (Ref. 92919).

Etymology: Scoloplax: Greek, skoloplax = a thorned plate (Ref. 45335); baileyi: Named for Dr. Reeve M. Bailey (1911-2011), for his remarkable contributions to ichthyology including the description of the genus Scoloplax and its type species, S. dicra..

Maturity: L_m ? range ? - ? cm
Max length : 1.5 cm SL macho / no sexado; (Ref. 92919)

Facultative air-breathing in the genus (Ref. 126274); Found in Rio Unini basin, in mid-sized streams within dense forest vegetation and these streams are blackwater throughout most of the year. During the dry season, some streams carry a small amount of sediment and present higher pH and conductivity values. Substrate consists of sand and silt and collections done using handnets sweeping stream bottom in depths that ranged from 0.4 to 1.5 meters. Stream temperature varied from 24.8 °C to 26.7 °C, pH from 5.2 to 6.5, conductivity from 8.8 to 18.6 µS/cm, and dissolved oxygen from 1.07 to 6.68 mg/l. Also collected together with this species are at least 40 species, including other undescribed species, from different taxonomic groups (Ref. 92919).
