Etymology: Nannocharax: Latin, nannus = small + Greek, charax = a marine fish without identification (Ref. 45335); hastatus: The adjectival species name hastatus, from the Latin 'hasta', meaning spear, is an allusion to the spearshaped body of the species (Ref. 96084).

Taggstrålar i ryggfenan (totalt) : 0; Mjukstrålar i ryggfenan (totalt) : 11 - 14; Taggstrålar i analfenan: 0; Mjukstrålar i analfenan: 13 - 15; Ryggkotor: 40 - 42. Diagnosis: Nannocharax hastatus is distinguished from all congeners except N. maculicauda and N. ocellicauda by the possession of a largely unpigmented body except for a dark line along the bases of the dorsal and anal fins and a longitudinally elongate, ovoid, dark spot on the posterior portion of the caudal peduncle and bases of the central caudal-fin rays; the elongate form of the head and body are also unique to these three species in the genus (Ref. 96084). Nannocharax hastatus differs from N. maculicauda in the numbers of scale rows around the caudal peduncle, 18-20 vs. 14-16; and pored scales along the lateral line, 6-9 vs. 55-61 (Ref. 96084). Nannocharax hastatus is distinguished from N. ocellicauda in the number of scales along the lateral-line scale series, 59-68 vs. 50-56; and scale rows around the caudal peduncle, 18-20 vs. 13-16 (Ref. 96084).
