Short description
Bestämningsnycklar | Morfologi | Morfometri
Mjukstrålar i ryggfenan (totalt) : 11 - 12; Mjukstrålar i analfenan: 8; Ryggkotor: 38. Leptobotia micra is diagnosed from all its congeners by a combination of the following
characters: absence of dark bars or dorsal saddles on body; a row of white dots along dorsal midline; 4+34 vertebrae; predorsal distance 58.1-59.0% SL; eye diameter 1.8?2.0% SL; pelvic fins not reaching anus; caudin fin emarginate (length of median rays 1.3?1.4 times in length of lower lobe); and the anus positioned distinctly closer to anal-fin origin than to pelvic-fin base (Ref. 116421).
