Dorsale stekels (totaal) : 4 - 6; Dorsale zachte stralen (totaal) : 14 - 19; Anale stekels: 1; Anale zachte stralen: 22 - 28.
Relative common in a variety of habitats including tannin-stained creeks in lowland rainforest, larger streams in more open areas and mountain tributaries to an elevation of about 400 m above sea level. Occurs in quiet shaded pools, as well as sunlit sections of larger streams and relatively fast-flowing mountain streams.
