Africa: River Ntem in Cameroon (Ref. 50834, 51193, 78218, 81642), Rio Bono (Rio Bonito drainage) in Equatorial Guinea (Ref. 78218) and the Kouilou-Niari in Republic of Congo (Ref. 92841). Reports from the Dja River (middle Congo River basin)(Ref. 51193) unconfirmed.
Dimensione / Peso / Età
Maturità: Lm ?  range ? - ? cm
Max length : 29.2 cm SL maschio/sesso non determinato; (Ref. 81642)
Spine dorsali (totale) : 2. Diagnosis: caudal peduncle relatively long, its depth slightly larger than the horizontal distance between the adipose and caudal fin bases (never twice as large); anterior edge of pectoral spine smooth, except for a few serrations distally; preorbital head length greater than maximum head depth (measured to end of supraoccipital process), lending the snout an elongate appearance; interorbital distance 22-25% HL; orbital diameter maximally 2 times in interorbital distance; numerous small spots on body and fins; spots on head usually smaller than those on flanks (Ref. 81642).
