Alestidae (African tetras)
Etymology: Alestion: Alestion is from Alestes Müller & Troschel 1844 (origin unknown), and the Greek diminutive suffix -ion. Gender masculine. While names ended in -ion classically are of neuter gender, for purposes of zoological nomenclature they may be regarded as masculine, as also with Thrattidion Roberts 1972 and Leptophilypnion Roberts 2013.; rapax: The species epithet rapax is from Greek rapax, an adjective meaning voracious, rapacious, or predatory (Ref. 123194).

deskripsi pendek
Morfologi | Morfometrik
Duri punggung (Keseluruhan (total)): 0; duri punggung lunak (Keseluruhan (total)): 10; Duri dubur 0; Sirip dubur lunak: 14; vertebrata, bertulang belakang: 39 - 40. Diagnosis: This species differs from all other alestid and all other characiform species in having supposed adults with greatly enlarged conical teeth in two rows on the premaxillary and on the dentary (Ref. 123194). Mouth slightly upturned; jaws short, entirely anterior to eyes; teeth with large round base and sharp slightly recurved tip, evidently specialized for puncturing (Ref. 123194). Head and body laterally compressed, slender; circumorbital bones absent; scales absent; postcephalic laterosensory system absent (Ref. 123194).
Found in river with maximum depth about one meter, width of river 40m; water turbid; bottom sand and gravel; with dense cover provided by Vossia and other aquatic plants on one side of channel (Ref. 123194). Stomach contents appear to be exclusively insect remains (Ref. 123194).
