Etymology: Malapterurus:Greek, mala = a lot of + Greek, pteron = fin + Greek, oura = tail (Ref. 45335); oguensis:The specific epithet is geographic referring to the Ogowe (Ogôoué) River where the types originated (Ref. 44050). More on author: Sauvage.
Environment: milieu / climate zone / 深度上下限 / distribution range 生態學
背棘 (總數) : 0; 臀棘: 0; 臀鰭軟條: 8 - 10; 脊椎骨: 38 - 40. Diagnosis: tooth patches narrow; vertically based pectoral fin positioned near body mid-depth; 6-7 branched caudal-fin rays; 8 (rarely 7 or 9) pectoral-fin rays; 3 ventral unbranched caudal-fin rays (Ref. 44050). Dorsum, flank and head unspotted; caudal saddle and bar pattern intensely expressed with wide, dark and well defined saddle that extends onto the anal fin, with no interruption between saddle and anal-fin pigment fields (Ref. 44050, 81645)(in all other species with a caudal saddle there is a clear break in pigment between the saddle and the anal fin pigmentation)(Ref. 44050). Venter unpigmented; 38-40 vertebrae (Ref. 44050, 81645). 4-14 gill-rakers (Ref. 44050).
Body shape (shape guide): fusiform / normal; Cross section: circular. 身體有 3 明顯的, 輪廓清晰的黑色橫帶: 一在身體上位於脂鰭前;(延伸到脂鰭的起源與部分進入臀鰭之內) 一在尾梗上緊鄰尾鰭的嵌入之前; 而且尾鰭的一個在中央。 寬的黑點之間的間隙, 灰白的在保存的標本中; 白色的﹐黃色的或甚至橘色在活體中。 顏色在稚魚中是最顯著的也出現在成魚。 整個的身體位於前這些標誌均勻白灰色, 根本有一些或沒有黑色的斑點; 黑色的斑點很小如果有的話 (. 參考文獻 34006)
