Comments: Found in streams with still to moderately flowing clear water, on sand to silt bottom or in dense vegetation (Ref. 59043).   Oviparous, possibly with distinct pairing during breeding similar to congeners (Ref. 205).  Population is threatened due to a concentrated distribution in a very limited stretch of stream which might dry up in summer (Ref. 59043).  Females grow up to a maximum length of 9.1 SL (Ref. 78640).
