Épines dorsales (Total) : 1; Rayons mous dorsaux (Total) : 4 - 5; Rayons mous anaux: 8 - 11; Vertèbres: 31 - 35. Can be differentiated from its congeners in the following characters: lacking distinct serrae on posterior edge of pectoral spine; adipose fin with moderately long base, its length 13.4-16.7 %SL; eye diameter 7-10 %HL; length of nasal barbel 38-57 %HL; tip of snout noticeably in front of apex of lower jaw; large anterior and posterior nostrils present, closely situated together and separated only by base of nasal barbel; caudal fin with 7+7-8 rays; branchiostegal rays 6-7; a light yellow snout with a sharp contrasted edge; color pattern consisting of dorsal and ventral light yellow patches on the body that sometimes coalesce at mid-height of the flank (Ref. 37037).
Body shape (shape guide): elongated; Cross section: compressed.
Akysis inermis has been found in various habitats from swift creek to riffles in streams and rapids in large rivers. All habitats had in common a stony (gravel to boulder) substrate and relatively swift current. In most of them the water was clear in the dry season (Ref. 37037).
