Eponymy: Gabriel de Bustamenté was a Brazilian slave trader on São Tomé Island, Gulf of Guinea. His occupation did not stop Greef describing him as the ‘hospitable and intelligent’ (translation) owner of a farm situated on São Tomé. (Ref. 128868), visit book page.
Issue
Not the same as Sicydium bustamantei Greef, 1884 (Ref. 59830), which is synonym of Lentipes bustamantaei Boulenger 1916. See taxonomic and nomenclatural details in Eschmeyer (CofF ver. Oct. 2012: Ref. 92135), issues that remain to be fixed.
Environment: milieu / climate zone / depth range / distribution range
Ecologia
; acqua dolce demersale; amfidromo (Ref. 92840). Tropical
Africa: Gulf of Guinea islands of Bioko, Pagalu (=Annobon), São Tomé and Principe; specimens from the lower Ndian River (Cameroon), tentatively identified as A. bustamantei, are more likely A. lateristriga (Ref. 79590).
Size / Peso / Age
Maturity: Lm ? range ? - ? cm
