Morphologie | Morphométrie
Rayons mous anaux: 204 - 221. Distinguished from other congeners by having the following combination of characters: the rictus falling short of the vertical through the posterior border of the posterior naris; depth of the caudal filament 6.7-9.1% CL; length of the caudal filament 14.4- 27.0% LEA; anteroposterior length of premaxilla equal to the transverse width; length of the posterior ceratohyal approximately the same length as the ventral hypohyal; length of the coronomeckelian bone less than 20% the length of Meckel’s cartilage; head length to the rear of the opercle 15.0-16.3% LEA; mouth width 7.0-10.3% HL; teeth on the dentary restricted to the anterior one-half or slightly more of the dorsal margin; presence of a narrow dark stripe along the lateral line and a broad band of dusky to dark pigmentation overlying the basal pterygiophores of the anal fin; 19-21 pectoral-fin rays; and 204-221 anal-fin rays (Ref. 93148).
Found in rapids (Ref. 93148).
