Dorsale stekels (totaal) : 0; Dorsale zachte stralen (totaal) : 10 - 14; Anale stekels: 0; Anale zachte stralen: 10 - 12. Diagnosis: Nannocharax usongo is distinguished from all other described Nannocharax species by its very small distance between the posterior border of the anus and the articulation of first anal-fin ray (0.9–1.9 vs. 2.2–14.2% of standard length), its body coloration, which consist of 7–11 mostly big blotches along the lateral line often coalesced to one wide black band, and 7–12 small blotches along the dorsum (Ref. 80507).
Body shape (shape guide): elongated; Cross section: compressed.

Biologie     Verklarende woordenlijst (bv. epibenthic)

Type specimens collected on logs in areas of relatively rapid water movement; logs had a very rugged surface due to being partially decomposed by wood eating Povilla (Ephemeroptera) larvae; individuals were spaced singly and moved very rapidly around log surface, but always with close contact to it and never reaching out into the free water column; first ray of pelvic fin very thick, which is adaptation to cling on wood in strong current; mouth subinferior and blunt (Ref. 80507).
