Diagnosis: small supraorbital process on infraorbital IV, not reaching the rostral border of the eye; fenestra between scapulo-coracoid and cleithrum absent; interdigitation between entopterygoid and quadrate (Ref. 81644).
Facultative air-breathing (Ref. 126274); Prefers forest streams and swamps, where it lurks among the roots of trees and may even capture its prey on land. Also found in rapids (Ref. 78218). Channallabes apus is an omnivore (Ref. 78218).

Estimates based on models
Fylogenetische diversiteitsindex (Ref.
82804): PD
50 = 0.5156 [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].
Bayesian length-weight: a=0.00102 (0.00046 - 0.00225), b=3.06 (2.88 - 3.24), in cm total length, based on all LWR estimates for this body shape (Ref.
93245).
Trofisch niveau (Ref.
