Compared to other congeners, orbital diameter smaller (5.7-7.6%SL versus 7.3-10.6); caudal peduncle depth lower (7.2-8.2% SL versus 8.8-10.4). Ctenoid scales restricted to posterior quarter of the body. Caudal fin rounded. Pectoral fin nearly symmetrical, 8th ray longest, with lower edge slightly thickened (Ref. 46528).

Biología     Glosario (por ej. epibenthic)

A rheophilic species which dwells on rocky bottom rapids with water flow up to 1.7 m/sec. Perches solitary on top of boulders. Forages on rock surfaces and picks mostly on benthic preys; also feeds on micro-crustaceans (cladocerans, ostracods, copepods), immature aquatic insects (chironomids, ephemeropterans, trichopterans) and minute clams (Ref. 46528).
