; zoet water benthopelagisch; pH range: 5.5 - 6.0. Tropical; 22°C - 26°C (Ref. 2059)
Africa: Sanaga basin in Cameroon to the Chiloango drainage in Republic of the Congo (Ref. 81639) and Angola (Cabinda)(Ref. 120641), including the basins of the Ntem, Nyong, Ogooué, Nyanga and Kouilou-Niari (Ref. 81639). Reported from the rivers Dja and Ngoko (Ref. 51193) and Alima (Ref. 42035)(middle Congo River basin), but this is not confirmed in Ref. 81639, which considers this species to be a Lower Guinea endemic.

Estimates based on models
Fylogenetische diversiteitsindex (Ref.
82804): PD
50 = 0.5000 [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].
Bayesian length-weight: a=0.01122 (0.00523 - 0.02406), b=3.01 (2.84 - 3.18), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this Genus-body shape (Ref.
93245).
Trofisch niveau (Ref.
69278): 3.0 ±0.3 se; based on size and trophs of closest relatives
Weerstandsvermogen (Ref.
120179): Hoog, minimale populatieverdubbelingstijd minder dan 15 maanden (Preliminary K or Fecundity.).
Fishing Vulnerability (Ref.
59153): Low vulnerability (10 of 100).
