Etymology: Chiloglanis: Greek, cheilos = lip + Greek, glanis = a fish that can eat the bait without touching the hook; a cat fish (Ref. 45335).
Eponymy: Emmanuel-Georges Waterlot (1877–1939) was a French collector of ethnological and natural history specimens (1913–1936) in French West Africa, both for the MNHN, Paris and for the BMNH, London. [...] (Ref. 128868), visit book page.

Short description
Chiavi di identificazione | Morfologia | Morfometria
Spine dorsali (totale) : 2; Raggi dorsali molli (totale) : 5 - 6; Spine anali: 0; Raggi anali molli: 9 - 10. Diagnosis: Chiloglanis waterloti is distinguished from all West African congeners, with the exception of C. longibarbis, in having fewer mandibular teeth in the functional row; it is distinguished from C. longibarbis in having shorter maxillary barbels and shorter medial mandibular barbels (Ref. 116018).
Body shape (shape guide): elongated.
This species is relatively abundant in its preferred habitat of flowing water with larger rocks and woody debris (Ref. 116018).
