Spine dorsali (totale) : 0; Raggi dorsali molli (totale) : 13 - 16; Spine anali: 0; Raggi anali molli: 14 - 16. Diagnosis: Nothobranchius hengstleri is distinguished from N. melanospilus and N. cf. melanospilus on the basis of male and female colouration, and by a more convex dorsal profile; male N. hengstleri differs from male N. melanospilus in having a greater body depth, 30.4-31.8% of standard length vs. 29.3-30.3%, a longer head, 33.3-33.5% of standard length vs. 26.8-28.3%, a longer prepelvic length, 49.6-50.1% of standard length vs. 45.6-48.9%; males and females have fewer scales in longitudinal series, 25-26 vs. 31-32; male N. hengstleri differs from male N. cf. melanospilus in having a greater body depth, 30.5-31.8% of standard length vs. 25.6-28.2%, a longer head, 33.3-33.5% of standard length vs. 29.5-32.6%; males and females have fewer scales in the longitudinal series, 25-26 vs. 29-30; males differ from males of the other two species in having a deeper red colouration over the entire body and head, a spotted anal fin, well defined brown spots over entire fin vs. few spots limited at base, a different caudal-fin pattern, deep red, with a well defined complete black margin vs. red, without any particular marking or with thin rudimentary black margin sometimes reduced on upper and lower angle, and a different caudal fin shape, perfectly rounded vs. rounded to subtruncate; female N. hengstleri differ from female N. melanospilus by the spots on body and fins, absent vs. present, and by the caudal fin shape indicated immediately before; they also differ from female N. cf. melanospilus by the spots on body and fins, absent vs. present but rudimentary in some populations, absent in other populations (Ref. 59960). Among other closely related species, male N. hengstleri differs from male N. vosseleri in having a longer head, 33.3-33.5% of standard length vs. 25.1-31.5%, anal fin pattern, spots forming approximately three or four arch-like stripes in middle part of fin vs. small spots extending on fin rays and irregular stripes, male N. vosseleri from Korogwe area by dorsal and anal fins colouration, yellow-green vs. yellow-grey to pale blue, males and females with fewer scales in longitudinal series, 25-26 vs. 25-31, and fewer anal fin rays, 14-16 vs. 15-18 (Ref. 58960). Male N. hengstleri differs from male N. interruptus in having a deeper red colouration over the entire body and head, caudal fin colouration, deep red with complete black margin vs. pale to clear red with irregular blue-grey to almost colourless border, dorsal fin colouration yellow-green, with red to brown spots vs. blue-grey to olive with dark grey spots, anal fin colouration yellow-green with red/brown spots vs. olive-yellow to pale blue with some grey spots near fin base, males and females with fewer scales in longitudinal series, 25-26 vs. 27-32, and caudal fin shape perfectly rounded vs. subtruncate (Ref. 58960). Male N. hengstleri differs from male N. jubbi in having a deeper red colouration over the entire body and head, dorsal fin colouration yellowish with red/brown spots vs. blue-grey to olive with red brown spots, anal fin colouration yellow-green, with red-brown spots vs. olive-yellow to pale blue with some grey spots near fin base, caudal fin colouration deep red with complete black margin vs. blue-grey with a pattern of red-brown spots and a white margin in blue morph and clear red followed by a wide blue-grey band and white border in red morph, female N. hengstleri differs from female N. jubbi in body and unpaired fins pattern not marked vs. dark border on body scales and small dark grey marking at base of fins, males and females with fewer scales in longitudinal series, 25-26 vs. 29-32, fewer dorsal fin rays, 13-16 vs. 15-20, fewer anal fin rays, 14-16 vs. 15-19, and caudal fin shape perfectly rounded vs. subtruncate (Ref. 58960). Male N. hengstleri differs from male N. elongatus in having a deeper red colouration over the entire body and head, anal fin colouration yellow-green, with red/brown spots vs. yellow-grey with few red spots near fin base, males and females have fewer scales in longitudinal series, 25-26 vs. 30-32, fewer anal fin rays, 14-16 vs. 16-18, and caudal fin shape perfectly rounded vs. subtruncate (Ref. 58960).


Body shape (shape guide): fusiform / normal.
