Etymology: Betta: Malay/Javanese origin. Bleeker (1850, 1858) indicates Ikan Wadder Bettah as the local name of Betta trifasciata Bleeker, 1849 (now Betta picta, Valenciennes, 1846) in the Ambarawa Javanese dialect. Ikan Wader is a common Javanese name for smaller freshwater fishes, especially cyprinids (already used in Old Javanese). See Blust, R. & Trussel, S. Austronesian Comparative Dictionary.

Short description
Morfología | Morfometría
Espinas dorsales (total): 0 - 2; Radios blandos dorsales (total): 8-9; Espinas anales 0-3; Radios blandos anales: 27; Vértebra: 30 - 31. A member of the Betta akarensis group distinguished from other members by possessing the following combination of characters: opercle with interrupted second postorbital stripe; eye color orange when alive; anal-fin rays 27-30; subdorsal scales 6-7; lateral scales 29-30; predorsal scales 21-24; postdorsal scales 10-12; preanal length 48.5-52.6% SL ; head length 32.6-37.5% SL; length of anal-fin base 47.8-55.4% SL (Ref. 56613).
Facultative air-breathing (Ref. 126274); Found in forest streams with moderate current, very shallow water among plant roots and submerged leaf litter along the banks. Also occurs in slow flowing black water streams among submerged stream bank vegetation and submerged leaf litter (Ref. 56613). An oral brooder (Ref. 56613).
