Short description
Claves de identificación | Morfología | Morfometría
Espinas dorsales (total) : 2; Radios blandos dorsales (total) : 5 - 6; Espinas anales: 0; Radios blandos anales: 9 - 10. Diagnosis: Chiloglanis waterloti is distinguished from all West African congeners, with the exception of C. longibarbis, in having fewer mandibular teeth in the functional row; it is distinguished from C. longibarbis in having shorter maxillary barbels and shorter medial mandibular barbels (Ref. 116018).
This species is relatively abundant in its preferred habitat of flowing water with larger rocks and woody debris (Ref. 116018).
