Tropical; 22°C - 26°C (Ref. 2059 ) Distribution Countries | FAO areas | Ecosystems | Occurrences | Point map | Introductions | Faunafri Africa: widespread with presence in East Africa, including Ethiopia, Egypt, Kenya and Tanzania, as well as in Cameroon, Nigeria and Tchad (Ref. 2801 , 2940 , 58532 , 81282 , 81639 ). Presence in the Congo basin (Ref. 11970 , 41590 , 41594 , 106290 , 120641 ) not confirmed in Ref. 58532. Size / Weight / Age Maturity: L m   ?   range ? - ? cm Max length : 11.0 cm SL male/unsexed; (Ref. 4967 ) Short description Morphology | Morphometrics Dorsal spines (total): 0; Dorsal soft rays (total): 10-11; Anal spines : 0; Anal soft rays : 9. Diagnosis: Garra dembeensis is distinguished from African congeners by the following combination of features: well-developed disc; between 0 and 4 predorsal scales anterior to dorsal fin; asquamate chest, belly and postpelvic region; intestine of medium length; ad moderately sized gas bladder (Ref. 58532 ). Biology     Glossary (e.g. epibenthic) Commonly found in rapid parts of rivers and also on wave-washed rocky shores of Lake Victoria (Ref. 4903 ). Adheres to stones in swift water (Ref. 28714 ). Feeds on epilithic algae and lithophilic insects (Ref. 12526 ), scraped from the surface of rocks (Ref. 4903 ).
