Gymnogeophagus constellatus |
Gymnogeophagus constellatus is a species of Geophagine cichlid. It inhabits parts of the Uruguay and Negro Rivers. It is characterised by the absence of supraneural bones, the presence of a forward spine in its first dorsal-fin pterygiophore, the absence of an oblique bar between the eye and nape, possessing a black marking near the dorsal-fin origin that projects to its dorsum, as well as other features.[1]
