Comments: The single specimen was captured in an area with gravel and rocky bottom, near the margin of the river (F. Bockmann, pers. comm.). The fishes from Bahia were captured by seine at night in a riverine beach in clear, shallow water with sand and gravel bottom in depth less than 1.70 m.  Stomach contents of two specimens were partially digested fragments of insect larvae and nymphs (Ref. 56311).
