Etymology: Rivulus: Latin, rivus = stream (Ref. 45335); berovidesi: Named in honor to Professor Vicente Berovides Alvarez at the Faculty of Biology, Universidad de la Habana, Cuba in recognition of his life-long dedication and contribution to train several generations of new researchers in biological sciences (Ref. 101368).
Eponymy: Professor Dr Vicente Berovides Alvarez (d: 1941) is a Cuban biologist, environmentalist and conservationist. [...] (Ref. 128868), visit book page.

Short description
Chiavi di identificazione | Morfologia | Morfometria
Spine dorsali (totale) : 0; Raggi dorsali molli (totale) : 6 - 9; Spine anali: 0; Raggi anali molli: 8 - 11. Diagnosis: both males and females are readily distinguished from Rivulus cylindraceus by the presence of a dark lateral band situated longitudinally along the lateral line, extended from the posterior margin of the eye to the base of the caudal fin; dorsal fin slightly shifted to the caudal peduncle in relation to the origin of anal fin (1–3mm) when compared to Rivulus cylindraceus; frontal scalation pattern in Rivulus berovidesi sp. n. is d-type vs. e-type pattern in Rivulus cylindraceus (Ref. 101368).
Body shape (shape guide): fusiform / normal.
Inhabits small mountain streams with bottom substrate basically composed by stones, sand and dead leaves; no aquatic vegetation in the area (Ref. 101368).
