deskripsi pendek
Morfologi | Morfometrik
Duri punggung (Keseluruhan (total)): 2; duri punggung lunak (Keseluruhan (total)): 7-9; Duri dubur 2-3; Sirip dubur lunak: 16 - 19. Can be easily confused with Micralestes acutidens but has a more slender body with no black tip to the dorsal fin. Does not possess a pair of conical teeth behind row of teeth in lower jaw as in M. acutidens.
Shoals in shallow, vegetated marginal and floodplain habitats. Appears to prefer a swampy environment to open water (Ref. 13337). Feeds on small aquatic insects and other invertebrates. A partial spawner, breeding during high-water periods (Ref. 7248). Known to migrate up rivers and on to floodplains during flood season (Ref. 13337).
