Radios blandos dorsales (total) : 11 - 12; Radios blandos anales: 18 - 19.
Body shape (shape guide): elongated.
The type locality at the time of collection was composed of an elongated ephemeral pool measuring about 40 m long, 20 m wide, and 1.2 m deep, with brown water and dense aquatic vegetation. Other fish fishes found were only annual fishes such as Spectrolebias filamentosus and Pterolebias longipinnis (Ref. 110333).
