Dorsale zachte stralen (totaal) : 11 - 12; Anale zachte stralen: 21 - 25; Wervels: 31. Distinguished from all species of the genus, except Hemigrammus stictus (Durbin), by having a large single humeral spot situated from fifth-sixth to posterior margin of eighth-tenth lateral line scales. Differs from Hemigrammus stictus by having a humeral spot roughly rectangular, higher than wide, with a pronounced upper, anteriorly-oriented extension,
conferring an inverted-comma shape to the blotch (vs. humeral spot roughly rounded, not presenting an inverted-comma shape), and life color pattern presenting unpaired fins orange reddish (vs. caudal fin and caudal peduncle bright red in life, remaining fins translucent) (Ref. 81198).
Body shape (shape guide): short and / or deep.
Inhabits shallow marginal areas, with abundant aquatic macrophytes, both emergent and non-emergent (Ref. 81198). Gut contents of four specimens include insect larvae, winged insects and plant matter (Ref. 81198).
