Etymology: Salariopsis: The suffix -opsis, from the ancient Greek 'view, appearance', is added to the epithet "Salaria" to highlight its apparent, but misleading, morphological similarity to the blenniid genus Salaria Forsskål, 1775 (Ref. 128181).

Short description Κλείδες προσδιορισμού | Μορφολογία | Μορφομετρία

Ραχιαίες άκανθες (συνολικά) : 12 - 13; Μαλακές ραχιαίες ακτίνες (συνολικά) : 16 - 17; Εδρικές άκανθες: 2; Μαλακές εδρικές ακτίνες: 16 - 19; Σπόνδυλοι: 36. Diagnosis: This species is distinguished from its congeners in European inland waters by the following combination of characters: cheeks with 3-5 rows of bold black dots, roughly running diagonally from eye backward and downward, with space between 2 of the lower rows greyish and spaces between upper rows paler; simple cirrus above eye; head length 29-33% SL; upper jaw with 25-30 teeth, lower jaw with 20-27; A II,16-19; D XII-XIII,16-17 (Ref. 59043).

Facultative air-breathing in the genus (Ref. 126274); A territorial species found in lake shores and usually in dense vegetation at 0.3 to 2 m depth. Adults feed on insects and crustaceans. They spawn in May-July. Eggs hatch in about one week. Larvae are planktonic until about 15 mm. (Ref. 59043).
