The operculum and base of the pectoral fin are silvery. Oryzias woworae has a truncate, rather than lunate or emarginate, caudal fin that distinguishes it from the large, pelagic Sulawesi ricefish in the genus Adrianichthys and five species of Oryzias: O. bonneorum, O. nebulosus, O. nigrimas, O. orthognathus, and O. sarasinorum. Oryzias woworae is readily distinguished from other Oryzias with a truncate caudal fin by an hour-glass shaped, rather than rounded, ossified portion of the mesethmoid with no cartilage on its midlateral margins, like the ethmoid of some of the larger, pelagic Sulawesi ricefishes (Ref. 84259).
