Chiavi di identificazione | Morfologia | Morfometria
This species is distinguished from T. albonubesT. kuehnei, T. micagemmae. by having a black lateral stripe located on the dorsal half of the flank (vs. on middle of flank), and a reddishorange dorsal-fin margin (vs. white); differs from .T. thacbaensis by the origin of the anal fin, anterior to the base of the last dorsal-fin ray (vs. posterior), and mouth superior (vs. terminal) (Ref. 125918).
Cross section: oval.
Collected at a small hill stream, about 2 m wide on average, located in the depths of the forest. Water depth varied from approximately 0.4 to 1 m and the bottom consisted of mud mixed with sand. Some aquatic plants (Cryptocoryne crispatula and Blyxa sp.) in the lower
