Short description Morfologi | Morfometri

Taggstrålar i ryggfenan (totalt): 0; Mjukstrålar i ryggfenan (totalt): 10-13; Taggstrålar i analfenan 0; Mjukstrålar i analfenan: 9 - 12; Ryggkotor: 35 - 37. Diagnosis: Afronemacheilus kaffa is distinguished from its congener A. abyssinicus by having usually 7 branched dorsal-fin rays (vs. usually 8 or 9); the anterior and posterior nares well separated (vs. closely spaced); the intestine with a single small loop (vs. straight); the sphenotic and epiotic usually in contact (vs. no contact); three pairs of pharyngobranchials and four basibranchials (vs. two and three, respectively); bar-like spots on flanks usually of similar size (Ref. 94278).
