Etymology: Garra: Name based on a vernacular Indian name (Hamilton, 1822:343, Ref. 1813); a fish living in mud (Ref. 128817); regressus: The species name regressus, from the Latin 'regress', meaning to go back, is chosen in reference to the regressed rostral cap characteristic of the species (Ref. 58532).

Taggstrålar i ryggfenan (totalt) : 0; Mjukstrålar i ryggfenan (totalt) : 10; Taggstrålar i analfenan: 0; Mjukstrålar i analfenan: 8. Diagnosis: This species is unique among African Garra in possession of a small, acutely pointed head, narrow mouth, regressed rostral cap, and a fully exposed upper jaw (Ref. 58532).
Body shape (shape guide): elongated.
Specimens were collected by trawl in papyrus beds close to shore, 25-30m, in water about 2.5m in depth (Ref. 58532).
