Etymology: Chiloglanis: Greek, cheilos = lip + Greek, glanis = a fish that can eat the bait without touching the hook; a cat fish (Ref. 45335).
Environment: milieu / climate zone / depth range / distribution range
Ecologia
; Água doce bentopelágico. Tropical
Africa: Benue River (middle Niger River basin) in Nigeria and Cameroon (Ref. 13094, 57223). Also reported from the Chad basin (Ref. 57223).
Tamanho / Peso / Idade
Maturity: Lm ? range ? - ? cm
Max length : 3.8 cm SL macho/indeterminado; (Ref. 57223)
Espinhos dorsais (total) : 1; Raios dorsais (total) : 5 - 6. Diagnosis: labial disk rather small, ovoid, with very large barbels; up to 3 auxiliary mandibular barbels on either side of lower lip; main outer
mandibular barbel without lateral auxiliary barbel; mandibular teeth numbering 4+4 to 7+7; adipose fin long, beginning distinctly ahead of anal-fin origin; caudal fin slightly forked, with unequal lobes (lower lobe longer than upper); eyes large; no sexual dimorphism known; caudal peduncle slightly elongate (Ref. 57223).
Coloration: no particular colour pattern; similar to that of other Chiloglanis species (Ref. 57223).
