臀棘: 0; 臀鳍软条: 9 - 11; 脊椎骨: 40 - 45. Medium-sized species probably attaining over 300 mm; vertebral counts 23+19+42(2); tooth bands moderately large, laterally and longitudinally moderately broad. Distinguished from the species in the Congo basin by its coloration, with relatively large blotches similar with M. electricus and M. minjiriya. Resembles M. electricus but differs in having more vertebrae (45 vs. 41-44), fewer gill rakers, and oral tooth bands that are laterally and longitudinally somewhat shorter. Holotype and paratype from the Shire have 2+21=23 and 3+18=21 gill rakers on the first gill arch (Ref. 34006). Tooth patches narrow; pectoral fin placed near the body mid-depth; 9 pectoral-fin rays; 9-11 anal-fin rays; total number of vertebrae 40-41; 7-8 branched caudal-fin rays; large blotches on dorsum and flank; base color grey; caudal fin at most lightly spotted (Ref. 44050).
中等大小的种可能达到超过 300 mm; 脊椎骨数 23+19+42;(2) 齿箍普通大的, 侧面地与纵向一般宽。用它的颜色与在刚果河流域中的此鱼种区分了, 与相当大的斑块近似 M. electricus 与 M. minjiriya. 与 M. electricus 相似但是不同之处为有更多的脊椎骨 (45 vs.41-44) ，比较少的鳃耙与口部的齿箍侧面地而且纵向地那是略微比较短的。 Holotype 与副方式从雪利河在第一个鳃弓上有 2+21=23 与 3+18=21个鳃耙。
