A very peculiar species, somewhat resembling S. yangambianus (also a typical forest species) and S. brevianalis which also have an irregularly marbled coloration; S. marmoratus however is easily distinguished by the absence of an adipose fin (Ref. 43912).Coloration: in life as well as in preserved specimens: dorsally dark brown; flanks irregularly marbled: dark brownish or blackish spots, alternating with paler irregular spots, present; large dark spot (tympanum spot) on each flank just behind head, where swim-bladder lies just below skin; belly and ventral side of head paler (whitish) and covered with small brown stripes and small spots; pectoral fins dark brown, outer rays darker than inner ones; dorsal fin dark coloured, often with pale rectangular region in middle; anal fin brown over its entire length; caudal fin dark at its base, followed by small pale zone, rest of tail (both fin lobes included) dark coloured (Ref. 43912).
