Affinities: close to B. bartoni, B. longipennis, B. derhami and B. intermedius; distinguished from the first three species by higher number of scales above lateral line and from B. intermedius by a higher number of branched anal rays and lateral line scales (Ref. 80920). This species is placed in the genus Alestes in Eschmeyer (CofF ver. May 2011: Ref. 86870).
