; süßwasser benthopelagisch. Tropical; 7°N - 10°S
Africa: Congo River basin, from the lower Congo River up to the Lualaba, in Democratic Republic of the Congo, Central African Republic and Angola (Ref. 26192).

Size / Gewicht / Alter
Geschlechtsreife: Lm ? range ? - ? cm
Max length : 27.0 cm TL Männchen/unbestimmt; (Ref. 2801)
Rückenflossenweichstrahlen (insgesamt) : 10; Wirbelzahl: 32. Lips with transverse plicae on inner surface; dorsal fin falciform; two small pairs of barbels present, generally hidden; eyes superolateral; a big dark brown spot found on the caudal peduncle and on the squamous caudal fin. Can be distinguished from L. falcipinnis by the presence of a furrow on the snout and from L. parvus by more numerous lateral line scales (Ref. 12456).
