The region has a smoothly undulating terrain and the area of occurrence is at an altitude of 327 m a.s.l.. The drainage has a clayey substrate, which gives an orange water colour when disturbed. Only Gymnotus aff. carapo Linnaeus, 1758 was found co-occurring with this species (Ref. 119399). Volcan, M.V., F. Severo-Neto and L.E.K.
