Comments: Inhabits two small, shallow, fast-flowing streams (rio Cassiporé and rio Jari) bordered with marginal vegetation.  Sections of the stream of rio Cassiporé have large rocks and the vegetation has suffered high anthropic influence causing intense penetration of light.  The stream of the rio Jari has 1-meter deep water in which <i>C. karipuna</i> lives associated to aquatic roots stuck on the border (Ref. 112322).
