Etymology: Apistogramma: Greek, apisto = uncertain + Greek, gramma = graphic signal (Ref. 45335); feconat: The new species occurs in the tributaries of the upper and middle Rio Tigre. It is named for the Federation of the Native Communities of the Tigre (FECONAT ) for its struggle to protect the environment of the tribal lands of the local native people from the impact of modern society. A noun in apposition.
Eponymy: This is an acronym referring to the Federation of the Native Communities of the Tigre (FECONAT). [...] (Ref. 128868), visit book page.

Short description
Chiavi di identificazione | Morfologia | Morfometria
Spine dorsali (totale) : 15 - 17; Raggi dorsali molli (totale) : 6 - 7; Spine anali: 3; Raggi anali molli: 6 - 7; Vertebre: 24. Apistogramma feconat can be diagnosed by the following characters: moderately high-backed, laterally compressed, and moderately elongate; distinct sexual dimorphism and dichromatism. It differs from all other known congeners on the basis of a combination of the following characters: fairly large yellow to orange head and metallic blue or pinkish body in adult males; overall grey slightly hypertrophied lips; bluish or pinkish dorsal fin with slightly prolonged serrated membranes, tips yellowish; large rhombic caudal spot; rounded caudal fin with bright orange to red submarginal and black marginal band; large lateral spot about half body height in females; broad cheek stripe, nape spot, and pectoral spot; small chin spot; squarish throat spot, clearly separated from broad mid-ventral stripe extending onto anal-fin margin (Ref. 104987).
Appears to be restricted to small clear- or blackwater forest streams with bottom substrate usually red or yellow latosol (Ref. 104987).
