Channa melasoma (BLEEKER, 1851)

Black Snakehead

January 2nd, 2014 — 7:34pm

This species can be told apart from the similar-looking congener C. baramensis (once considered synonymous with C. melasoma) by absence (vs. presence) of a black spot in the centre of numerous body scales and absence (vs. presence in specimens larger than 120 mm SL) of a barred caudal-fin pattern.
