Rayons mous dorsaux (Total) : 12; Rayons mous anaux: 8. A member of the group of species with complete or nearly complete lateral line, 8 1/2 branched dorsal rays, 9+8 branched caudal rays and no sexual dimorphism. Can be distinguished by the following characters: 7-10 bars on body, the anterior ones conspicuously wider than the posterior ones; maximum head width 13.2-18.2% SL; eye diameter 2.7-6.8% SL, 13-31% HL; interorbital width 5.0-6.8% SL, 25-31% HL. Its slender caudal peduncle (1.25-1.53 times longer than deep; length 14.4-17.7% SL; depth 10.2-13.9% SL) and its peculiar color pattern with posterior bars usually forming large round blotches along lateral line allow to distinguish it from its Indochinese congeners (Ref. 39226).
A 7.17 cm SL specimen has unidentifiable vegetal remains in its stomach (Ref. 39226).
