Badidae (Chameleonfishes)
Etymology: Badis: 'badis' is presumably a Bengali local name, possibly derived from 'bhedo' or 'bheda', but it lacks a proper reference. Probably incorrect etymology (J. Müller, pers. comm., April 2021, after information from native speakers).

Max length : 6.8 cm SL mâle / non sexé; (Ref. 46238)
Épines dorsales (Total) : 16 - 17; Rayons mous dorsaux (Total) : 9 - 11; Rayons mous anaux: 7 - 8; Vertèbres: 29 - 30. Possess a prominent dark blotch posterodorsally on opercle and two rows of irregular blackish blotches along side. Differs from B. blosyrus by shorter jaw, upper jaw 9.7-10.9 SL vs. 12.0-13.6; lower jaw 12.7-14.6%SL vs. 16.3-18.5, having more scales in lateral row (28-29 vs. 27-28), fewer gill rakers (7-9 vs. 10-13), and more vertebrae (29-30 vs. 27-29) (Ref. 46238).
Body shape (shape guide): fusiform / normal; Cross section: compressed.
Neotype locality was a swamp-like tributary over 1 m deep with stagnant, brownish water, situated in plains, in a forest landscape, and with trees close to the bank, trees and waterlilies in the water; sandy bottom (Ref. 46238).
