Etymology: Hylopanchax: Greek, hylo, hyle = material, wood + Panchax, a word created by Meinken in 1932 ; moke: The species name 'moké' is the Lingala word for "very small", referring to the minute size of this species (Ref. 94189).
Environment: milieu / climate zone / depth range / distribution range
Ecologie
; zoet water pelagisch. Tropical
Africa: western part of the middle Congo River basin, between the Tshuapa and Kasai Rivers, in Democratic Republic of the Congo (Ref. 94189).

Dorsale stekels (totaal) : 0; Dorsale zachte stralen (totaal) : 6 - 7; Anale stekels: 0; Anale zachte stralen: 15 - 17; Wervels: 31. Diagnosis: This species is distinguished from all other Hylopanchax species by its extreme slender body (body depth 16.3-20.0% of standard length vs. 20.8-35.5% in standard length), and small size of mature specimens, being maximum 21.2 mm standard length (Ref. 94189). Back almost straight and almost no difference in body depth between pectoral fin and anal fin versus convex back and greatest body depth always between pelvic and anal fin in other species of Hylopanchax (Ref. 94189).
Found in calmer parts of larger forest streams (Ref. 94189).
