Dorsale stekels (totaal) : 8; Dorsale zachte stralen (totaal) : 9 - 12; Anale stekels: 3; Anale zachte stralen: 7 - 9. Body color silver grey, sometimes with 1-2 randomly positioned black blotches on upper sides and about 10 faint bars. Greatest body depth 2.7 - 3.0 in SL. Similar to S. ogilbyi (Ref. 44894).
Body shape (shape guide): short and / or deep; Cross section: compressed.
Adults occur in small, well-shaded, slow-flowing streams with mixed sand, silt and rock bottoms; also in deeper rocky pools in gorges. Water is typically fresh and clear, between 21° and 28° C, with a neutral or slightly basic pH (Ref. 44894). Eggs are guarded and fanned by the male parent (Ref. 205).
