Etymology: Garra: Name based on a vernacular Indian name (Hamilton, 1822:343, Ref. 1813); a fish living in mud (Ref. 128817); propulvinus: Name refers to the central pad, which has an appearance of projecting forward from a broad base; noun in apposition.

Dorsale stekels (totaal) : 0; Dorsale zachte stralen (totaal) : 10; Anale stekels: 0; Anale zachte stralen: 6 - 7; Wervels: 24 - 26. A small species of Garra with smoothly rounded snout tip, rostral lobe present, proboscis absent, predorsal region, chest and abdomen scaled, two pairs of barbels, lateral line scales 31, circumpeduncular scales 16. Uniquely distinguished by the dense patch of about 15-20 strong, conical tubercles concentrated to the rostral lobe. The shape of the central pad distinguishes G. propulvinus from most or all other Garra species, being widest posteriorly, giving the appearance of a nearly straight posterior base with a rounded anterior extension, instead of widest medially with equally rounded posterior and anterior halves.
Body shape (shape guide): elongated; Cross section: other (see remarks).
This fish could potentially be an aquarium species (Fang, 2004, pers. Comm.).
