Africa: endemic to but widely distributed in the Congo River basin (Ref. 41594, 42019, 42510, 44840, 45616, 46233, 46253, 80450) in Democratic Republic of the Congo (Ref. 42019), Republic of Congo (Ref. 44840), Cameroon (Ref. 46233) and the Central African Republic (Ref. 80450).

Body shape (shape guide): fusiform / normal.
Omnivore; remnants of small fish, fruits (Ref. 4910), aquatic and terrestrial insects and vegetation (Ref. 4910, 41580) found in stomach. Found in schools, can frequently be seen jumping above water surface (Ref. 41594). Very similar to A. macrophthalmus (Ref. 42019, 42480).
