Africa: rivers Rembo Ngove and Nyanga in Gabon, Ogooué in Gabon and Republic of Congo, Kouilou in Republic of Congo, and Chiloango in Angola (Ref. 78218, 81643); also throughout the Congo River basin except for the Zambian Congo (Ref. 78218).
Lunghezza alla prima maturità / Dimensione / Peso / Età
Maturità: Lm 6.5  range ? - ? cm
Max length : 12.6 cm SL maschio/sesso non determinato; (Ref. 81643)
Spine dorsali (totale) : 1; Raggi dorsali molli (totale) : 4 - 6. Diagnosis: single pair of mandibular barbels; 4-5 (exceptionally 6) branched dorsal fin rays; 30-54 branched anal fin rays; no dark oblique band (from posterior border of operculum to above anus), no dark spots on caudal lobes, dorsal dark band continues onto caudal fin (Ref. 43912, 81643). 7-8 (rarely 9) branchiostegal rays on one side of head; base of anal fin marked by small dark line (Ref. 43912).
Body shape (shape guide): elongated.
Riverine species with gregarious habits, confined to large as well as moderate and small water systems (Ref. 43912). Forms schools (Ref. 6868). Carnivorous with insectivorous preference; reproduction probably coincides mainly with flood periods (Ref. 43912). Oviparous, eggs are unguarded (Ref. 205). Maximum total length recorded 148 mm (Ref. 43912, 81643).
