Author: Roberts & Stewart, 1976
Comments: Found in large numbers in areas with slowly-flowing waters along the banks of the Congo River near Brazzaville and Kinshasa; does not seem to prefer the more rapidly-flowing parts of the river, even though Roberts & Stewart (1976) viewed it as a moderately rheophilic species (Ref. 52307). Feeds on worms, crustaceans and insects (Ref. 7020). Cave-spawner (Ref. 52307).
