Rayons mous dorsaux (Total) : 15 - 18; Rayons mous anaux: 15 - 18. This species is distinguished from its congeners by the following set of characters: anal fin with narrow brown submedial band, followed by a slender yellow band, a slender red-brown band and a slender dark brown distal band in males; caudal fin with brown spots proximally and
medially, and with slender white to light blue subdistal band and a narrow dark grey distal band; dorsal-fin base length 25.7-28.0% SL; postorbital length 49-51% HL; and head width 68-74 in % of its depth (Ref. 138275).
Body shape (shape guide): fusiform / normal; Cross section: oval.
This species inhabits a turbid remnant pool in the seasonal Lubule River, 10-15 m in diameter and about 1 m deep, connected to a 1-2 m wide shallow riverbed with grass-overgrown margins (Ref. 1382275).
