Etymology: Chrysichthys: Greek, chrysos = golden + Greek, ichthys = fish (Ref. 45335); praecox: From the Latin 'praecox', meaning early ripening or precocious, in reference to the small size at which this species matures (Ref. 78725).

简单描述
检索表 | 型态特徵 | 形态测量图
This species is distinguished from other Chrysichthys by having vomerine accessory toothplates forming a smooth arc, narrowly separated in midline and broadening posteriorly in adult males; narrow and sharply pointed supraoccipital process; upper jaw extending beyond lower jaw; strong postcleithral process; maxillary barbel length 2,7-4,8 times in standard length; nasal barbel reaching the orbit; uniformly dark pigmentation; and 14-19 gill rakers on the first gill arch (Ref. 78725).
Lac Mai-Ndombe is a 'blackwater' lake with an acidic pH (4.0-5.5); maximum depth is 10 m; limits increase dramatically during seasonal rains; C. praecox is a small claroteid catfish with marked secondary sexual dimorphism; matures at small size (Ref. 78725).
