背棘 (总数) : 0; 背的软条 (总数) : 183 - 230. Diagnosis: body very elongate (Ref. 28714, 81275), anguilliform (Ref. 81275), its depth 7.2-10.6 times in SL, and covered with tiny scales (Ref. 2915, 81275). Lateral line complete (Ref. 81275). Dorsal fin soft-rayed, extending almost over the entire length of back (Ref. 81275), stopping short of a naked tail (Ref. 28714). Pelvic, anal and caudal fins absent (Ref. 28714, 81275), body ending in a thin/sharp point (Ref. 2915, 81275). Pectoral fins reduced (Ref. 81275), 1.9-5.0 times in head length (Ref. 2915, 81275). Head naked, its length 5.6-6.9 times in SL; snout prominent (Ref. 2915, 81275). Mouth large and terminal; teeth strong, pointed or notched, aligned in a single row in both jaws, 12-16 in upper, 22-28 in lower jaw; premaxillae, as well as vomer and palatines, coalesced; maxillae, vomer and palatines toothless; eye very small, without a free margin (covered by skin); only the left gonad is developed and functional (Ref. 81275).
Coloration: dark grey to almost black, darker posteriorly; belly whitish (Ref. 81275).
体高 7.2-10.3 x SL。 头部 5.6-6.9 x SL。 吻突出的。 胸鳍 1.9-5.0 x 头长。 身体的末端形成细尖状。 头部没有鳞片。 鳞片小的。
Obligate air-breathing (Ref. 126274); Obligate air-breathing (Ref. 118411, 126274). Inhabits marginal vegetation and swamps constructing a flask-shaped nest in vegetation during the floods, which it is reputed to defend with vigour (Ref. 28714). Following flooding of the Gambia River banks, large elliptical floating nests are build in densely vegetated swamps at depths of about 1-1.5 m, in which about 1000 ‘amber-like’ eggs are laid; larvae hatch after 5 days (Ref. 10609). Feeds on crustaceans, insects and fish (Ref. 28714). No pelvic, anal or caudal fins (Ref. 28714). Possesses an electric organ that extends along almost the entire trunk to the tip of the tail (Ref. 10840). Also equipped with ampullary receptors and two types of tuberous receptors for electroreception (Ref. 10841). Showed increased electric organ discharge (EOD) rate by 50-60 Hz between 21 and 31°C (Ref. 10837).
在河岸 (冈比亚河) 的洪水泛滥之后，这种建立大的椭圆漂浮筑巢在满布植物的沼泽中深度大约 1-1.5 公尺; 产下大约 1000像琥珀色一样的' 卵; 在 5 天之后的仔鱼孵化.(参考文献 10609) 吃甲壳动物，昆虫与鱼。 (参考文献 28714) 没有腹鳍、臀鳍与尾鳍。 持有一个延伸的发电器几乎沿着整个躯干到尾巴的尖端.(参考文献 10840) 对于接收电流也具备有感觉顶泡与两种类型的感觉结节。 (参考文献 10841) 在 21 与 31 °C 之间 50-60个赫兹显现增加的发电器放电 (EOD) 率了。 (参考文献 10837)

Breeds in well-vegetated, marginal areas of swamps and rivers, where a large, floating nest, about 1 m in diameter, is constructed, in which the eggs are laid and later guarded by one of the parents (Ref. 27583). Distinct pairing (Ref. 205).非洲: 在尼羅河，尼日，查德的佛塔河，塞內加爾與甘比亞流域與魯道夫湖中廣泛地出現。
