Etymology: Characidium: Diminutive of Charax, -akos = a fish without identification (Ref. 45335); nupelia: Named for Nupélia (Núcleo de Pesquisas em Limnologia, Ictiologia e Aqüicultura), in recognition of its role in the survey and ecological research of the fish fauna from the Manso Reservoir region, which led to the discovery of this species..

Short description
Khóa để định loại | Hình thái học | Sinh trắc học
Các vây lưng mềm (tổng cộng) : 12 - 13; Tia mềm vây hậu môn: 9; Động vật có xương sống: 33. Belongs to a group of species, including Characidium xavante, distinguished uniquely by having high number (12-18) of dark, vertical bars on the body, each bar having the width of a scale. Differs from Characidium xavante by a greater number of scales
around the caudal peduncle (12 vs. 10), narrower interorbital region (interorbital distance 20.5-28.6 vs. 30.1-38.0% HL) and deeper caudal peduncle (caudal peduncle depth 46.2-57.8% vs. 35.4-44.9% HL). Additional conspicuous external characters which are not unique but are
useful in the identification of this species include absence of adipose fin, incomplete lateral line, and presence a dark blotch on the caudal peduncle (Ref. 75787).
