Etymology: Hylopanchax: Greek, hylo, hyle = material, wood + Panchax, a word created by Meinken in 1932; thysi: The name thysi is in honour of Dirk Thys van den Audenaerde in recognition of his outstanding contributions to our knowledge on African ichthyology as well as for the many expeditions and resulting collections he made in Africa (Ref. 123864).
Eponymy: Professor Dr Dirk Frans Elisabeth Thys van den Audenerde (d: 1934) is a Belgian ichthyologist and Museum Director. [...] (Ref. 128868), visit book page.

Kurzbeschreibung
Bestimmungsschlüssel | Morphologie | Morphometrie
Rückenflossenstacheln (insgesamt) : 0; Rückenflossenweichstrahlen (insgesamt) : 7 - 8; Afterflossenstacheln: 0; Afterflossenweichstrahlen: 15 - 17; Wirbelzahl: 30. Diagnosis: Hylopanchax thysi is distinguished from all other Hylopanchax species, except H. paucisquamatus, by the presence of 30 vertebrae vs. 31-33 (Ref. 123864). It is further distinguished from H. paucisquamatus and all congeners except H. multisquamatus by the presence of a hyaline urogenital male papilla with small black spots vs. black, and the presence of a conspicuous reticulate pattern in the flank of both males and females vs. absence or less conspicuous; finally, H. thysi is distinguished from H. multisquamatus by a male caudal peduncle depth-length ratio between 53-59% vs. 40-45%, 24-26 scales in the midlongitudinal series vs. 27-30, 13-14 pectoral-fin rays vs. 11-12, body depth 25.2-27.8% of standard length vs. 20.0-23.7%, female predorsal length between 62.0-64.0% of standard length vs. 66.0-74.8%, and female prepelvic length of 33.7-38.0% of standard length vs. 42.1-45.1% (Ref. 123864).
Cross section: compressed.
Found in shallow creeks (Ref. 123864).
