Etymology: Chiloglanis: Greek, cheilos = lip + Greek, glanis = a fish that can eat the bait without touching the hook; a cat fish (Ref. 45335); pezoldi: This species is named for Frank Pezold, who led the 2003 expeditions that collected this and other species; he initiated Ray Schmidt's research on the fishes from the area (Ref. 116018).

Short description
Morfologia | Morfometria
Spine dorsali (totale): 2; Raggi dorsali molli (totale): 4-6; Spine anali 0; Raggi anali molli: 8 - 10. Diagnosis: Chiloglanis pezoldi is distinguished from C. waterloti, C. longibarbis, C. occidentalis, C. normani, C. nzerekore, C. kabaensis, and C. kolente in having more mandibular teeth in the functional row; it can be easily distinguished from C. polyodon and C. lamottei in having fewer mandibular teeth in the functional row, and from Chiloglanis aff. micropogon in having moderately long medial and lateral mandibular barbels vs. absent or reduced barbels; it is distinguished from C. dialloi and C. loffabrevum in having longer dorsal spines; it is distinguished from C. camarabounyi in having longer pectoral spines, fewer premaxillary teeth, 51-77 vs. 60-112, and a longer adipose fin, 13.2-21.9% of standard length vs. 12.1-15.9%; it can be distinguished from C. tweddlei in having a smaller premaxillary tooth patch, 12.2-15.8% of standard length vs. 15.3-18.2%, and in having premaxillary teeth in three rows vs. four rows (Ref. 116018).
This species is found in a small clear stream on the edge of the Ziama Forest; in riffles with gravel substrate and woody debris (Ref. 116018).
