Comments: Found mainly in in lentic water near the bank, about 1.5 m from the margin in shallow places
  (0.3 - 0.5 m) where herbaceous vegetation Cyperaceae prevailed.  Other species encountered in the same biotope were <i>Rivulus schuncki</i> Costa & De Luca, 2011, juveniles of <i>Hoplerythrinus unitaeniatus</i> (Spix & Agassiz, 1829) and <i>Nannostomus</i> sp.  Also collected from a lotic  water creek in a shallow place (0.4 m) on the flooded margin and found sympatric with <i>Apistogramma gossei</i> Kullander, 1982, <i>Crenicichla inpa</i> Ploeg, 1991, <i>Krobia</i> sp., <i>Mesonauta</i> sp., <i>Satanoperca jurupari</i> (Heckel, 1840) and <i>Fluviphylax palikur</i> Costa & Le Bail, 1999 (Ref. 91058).
