Espinhos dorsais (total) : 2; Raios dorsais (total) : 4 - 5; Espinhos anais: 0; Raios anais : 9 - 12; Vértebras: 36 - 38. Diagnosis: This species is generally more pallid and less conspicuously marked than other species of Zaireichthys (Ref. 86935). It differs from Zaireichthys conspicuus, Z. kunenensis, Z. lacustris and Z. maravensis in possessing a narrow premaxillary tooth patch, less than 40% of the mouth width; from Z. monomotapa by the smaller number of rays in the dorsal fin, 4-5 soft rays vs. 5-6), pectoral fins, 5-7 vs. 7-8, and caudal fin, 9-13 vs. 14-16; from Z. kavangoensis in colour pattern (Ref. 86935).

Found in shallow water with a sandy bottom (Ref. 94654). It feeds on small invertebrates, including mayfly nymphs and caddis fly larvae (Ref. 94654).

Estimates based on models

Índice de diversidade filogenética (Ref. 82804): PD₅₀ = 0.5000 [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].

Bayesian length-weight: a=0.00389 (0.00180 - 0.00842), b=3.12 (2.94 - 3.30), in cm total length, based on all LWR estimates for this body shape (Ref. 93245).

Nível Trófico (Ref. 69278): 3.0 ±0.4 se; based on size and trophs of closest relatives

Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153): Low vulnerability (10 of 100).
