背的軟條 (總數) : 8 - 10; 臀鰭軟條: 4 - 6; 脊椎骨: 31. This species is easily distinguished from all its congeners by the following characters: the red-orange color of the caudal fin and posterior one-fourth of the body; with a pointed proboscis with a blue stripe on each side from the anterior margin of the orbit to the tip of the proboscis and with the stripes forming a V-shape; further differs from notata, salweenica, the only other species of Garra in the Salween River basin with a proboscis, by lacking the conspicuous black spots at the base of the dorsal fin and large black spots or bands on the caudal fin; further differs from G. salweenica in having fewer pectoral rays (14-15 vs.17-18) (Ref. 128964). Body shape (shape guide): elongated; Cross section: oval.
Specimens were collected in swift rocky riffles in the Cin Kayin State in Myanmar, and in the Kasat River in Kanchanaburi Province, Thailand (Ref. 128964).
