: 6. Differs from its congeners, except
O. vestitus
,
O. flexilis
, and
O. affinis
by canal-bearing plates of trunk median plate series truncated, restricted to the anterior field (versus presence of canal-bearing plates on posterior field). Distinguished from
O. vestitus
by the presence of iris diverticulus, and by the absence of paired W-shaped marks on caudal fin. Differs from
O. flexilis
and
O. affinis
by having lateral ethmoid with large subnasal lamina (versus small subnasal lamina), 20-22 total lateral plates (versus 24 or more), a narrow nuchal plate (versus a wide nuchal plate), and plates of median series not arranged in tandem repeat patter (versus plates arranged in tandem repeat pattern) (Ref.
46820
).
Facultative air-breathing in the genus (Ref.
126274
); Inhabits well-oxygenated, slow to moderate flowing waters, often near river banks (Ref.
46820
). Feeds on algae (Ref.
46820
).
