Short description
Chiavi di identificazione | Morfologia | Morfometria
Diagnosis: Most similar to its congeners, pinima, temensis, thyrorus, and vazzoleri in having distinct rows of light spots along the side, and presence of large ocellated blotches replacing vertical bars in adults. It is unique by absence or extreme reduction of squamation of dorsal fin. Scales in E1 row 100-108 (vs. 77-90 in C. thyrorus). Similar only to C. pinima in having an ocellated black spot just below soft dorsal fin. Only breeding male known has three blotches ocellated by white dots representing bars 1 and 2, it is similar to thyrorus, but different from pinima, temensis, and vazzoleri in which bars below upper lateral line typically entire and dorsal ocellar markings frequent only in vazzoleri. Dorsal fin count modally XV 16 (shared with vazzoleri vs. XV 17 in other species of Cichla) and vertebral count modally 18 + 16 = 34 (vs. 18 + 17 = 35, 18 + 18 = 36 or 19 + 17 = 36 in other species) (Ref. 57716).
