Clés d'identification | Morphologie | Morphométrie
Épines dorsales (Total) : 7; Rayons mous dorsaux (Total) : 9; Épines anales: 1; Rayons mous anaux: 8 - 9. Mid-lateral scales 62-65; horizontal scales rows 19-20; predorsal scales 40-48. Generally dark brown dorsally, lighter below with a series of close-set, narrow dark brown stripes on sides. Median and pelvic fins with small dark spots. Pectoral fins with rows of dark spots forming transverse bands. Juveniles often whitish grey dorsally with a narrow white stripe (or irregular white blotches) along mid-line. Similar to O. lineolata but has spotted anal, pelvic, and pectoral fins (Ref. 44894).
Body shape (shape guide): fusiform / normal; Cross section: circular.
Facultative air-breathing in the genus (Ref. 126274); Inhabits rivers, creeks and billabongs, usually in quiet o slowly flowing water among vegetation, around log debris or undercut banks. A nocturnal carnivore, feeds on fishes, crustaceans, and aquatic insects (Ref. 44894).
