Rayons mous dorsaux (Total) : 8; Rayons mous anaux: 4 - 5. Extreme reduction of dermal plates on the dorsal surface of body, with just the ventral and mid-ventral rows normally developed; absence of dorsal-fin spinelet and nuchal plate; absence of the connecting bone and ligament between second dorsal-fin proximal radial and rib of sixth centrum; reduction of lateral line; loss of the infraorbital sensory canal; and absence of adipose fin (versus present in all species but H. vestigipinnis). Fourth branched ray of pelvic fin longest, reaching to middle of anal fin when depressed.
Facultative air-breathing in the genus (Ref. 126274); Occurs in small, shallow rivers with clear water and moderate to strong water current. Usually found among the bottom rocks and stones.
