Short description
Claves de identificación | Morfología | Morfometría
Espinas dorsales (total) : 37 - 40; Radios blandos dorsales (total) : 82 - 92; Espinas anales: 3; Radios blandos anales: 79 - 81; Vértebra: 97 - 100. Differs from all congeners by having a unique color pattern consisting of numerous individual spots or irregular marks, sometimes forming short lines and a whitish belly devoid of any marks. Can be separated from members of the Mastacembelus armatus group by the possession of abdominal vertebrae 42-44 (Ref. 78150).
