However, the stream in the area of occurrence is with swift to fast current among large boulders, or small cascades, and further downriver, current is quieter, over large stones and gravel (Ref. 37785).

Distinguished from all Indochinese congeners in having a strongly depressed head (depth 8.3% SL vs. 8.8-15.8) with lower jaw strongly- projecting (vs. non- or weakly-projecting); and 20 principal caudal-fin rays (vs. 17). Can be differentiated from A. mucronatum, A. foratum, and A. variegatum in having a smaller eye diameter (4.8% HL vs. 5.1-8.5% HL) (Ref. 37785). Ng, H.H. and M.
