Kort beskrivning
Bestämningsnycklar | Morfologi | Morfometri
Mjukstrålar i ryggfenan (totalt) : 11; Ryggkotor: 33 - 34. Distinguished from all other species of Moenkhausia by the combination of the following characters: 3 or 4 scale rows below and 5 or 6 scale rows above the lateral line; 33-35 scales on lateral line; anal fin with 21-25 branched rays; 2-4 maxillary teeth; one diffuse humeral spot, and caudal spot continuous to the longitudinal line which extends posteriorly over the middle caudal-fin rays (Ref. 87319).
Body shape (shape guide): short and / or deep.
Occurs in streams and semi-lentic and lotic shallow areas (up to 0.8 m deep) with riparian vegetation composed by trees and shrubs. The streams are characterized by transparent water, and bottom with rocks, stones, and sand in some stretches.
