Etymology: Knipowitschia: Because of N.M.Knipowitsch, a zoologist and Russian ichthyologist from the Academy of Sciences. Expeditions in "Pomor" and "Pervosvanniy" ships to Azov and Black sea (1898-1908).
Eponymy: Nikolai Mikhailovich Knipovich (also given as Knipowitsch) (1862–1939) was a Russian oceanographer, marine zoologist and ichthyologist. [...] Manfred Görner has supported Harold Ahnelt’s ichthyological work for many years. Unfortunately, nothing more is said of him. (Ref. 128868), visit book page.

Breve descrizione
Chiavi di identificazione | Morfologia | Morfometria
Spine dorsali (totale) : 7; Raggi dorsali molli (totale) : 8; Spine anali: 1; Raggi anali molli: 8. Distinguished from all other species of the genus by the following combination of characters: D1 VI, D2 I, 8, A I, 8, P 15-16; complete body squamation, lateral line scales 32-33; cephalic lateral-line system: anterior oculoscapular canal much reduced, ending between eyes with or without pores')… (if pore')… is present then a pore ')…' is present too), with pore K (always paired), with pore a and always with pore a'; preopercular canal absent; oculoscapular row z separated in two sections; paired interorbital row p present; eyes large, interorbital space distinctly smaller than eye diameter; coloration of first dorsal fin: adult females with a broad dark band on distal third, adult males with two dark spots (Ref. 26720).
Body shape (shape guide): fusiform / normal.
Occurs in freshwater spring and small brook flowing towards nearby lagoons; also in associated wetlands. No biological data available (Ref. 59043). Is threatened due to water abstraction and pollution (Ref. 26100).
