Attributs

  • DISTRIBUTION: Lien Faunafri
  • Colour pattern : Stiassny et al., 2006 .
  • Common names : Kheeli röövpardkala (Estonian) .
  • Current distribution known : known only from the type series collected at two widely separated localities in the Lower Congo, although continued collecting in the region will probably extend this range .
  • Distribution_references : Stiassny et al., 2006 .
  • Habitat / home range : collections were made in complex habitats composed of alternating riffles and pools. Near Inga, such habitat was part of a small channel connected to the mainstream Congo, flowing through a large boulder-field. Near Kilemfu, a similar habitat was formed in the main channel of the Inkisi River at an isolated riffle formed by a short stretch of rocky substrate. In both cases, it was captured in deeper stretches of open water in relatively fast-flowing waters .
