Short description
Claves de identificación | Morfología | Morfometría
Body depth 2.1-2.9 times in SL (deeper in larger specimens); series of 4-5 short faint bars on anterior half of body; 19-23 branched anal rays (Ref. 43281).
Occur at the surface of large rivers and flooded forests. Seems to move back into large rivers in March or April at the very end of the flood cycle. Diet consists mostly of exogenous insects caught at the surface. Probably used to make prahoc. Occasionally seen in the aquarium trade (Ref. 12693).
