Dorsale stekels (totaal) : 3; Dorsale zachte stralen (totaal) : 8; Anale stekels: 3; Anale zachte stralen: 5; Wervels: 27 - 28. This species is distinguished by the following characters: last unbranched dorsal fin ray is flexible, simple, and not serrated along its posterior edge; barbels two pairs; circumpeduncular scales 10-11; lateral line scales 26-28; scales between the dorsal-fin base and the lateral-line 4-5; three black spots aligned on the flanks with a greyish black midlateral band eye diameter, 32.4%-34.6% HL (Ref. 132585).
Cross section: compressed.
This species was collected in calm waters during the minor dry season (June to August), the river does not dry up completely during this season.
