Comments: Collected close to the deadwood in a shallow, slow flowing, high transparency black-water stream, about 30-50 cm deep with dense vegetation.  In the small stream they were found in small shoals of about 3-5 individuals swimming near the surface, while in the Lago Tiburiari this species formed larger shoals of about 20 individuals. Found sympatrically was the miniature scoloplacid, <i>Scoloplax dolicholophia</i> (Ref. 123788),
