Etymology: Paretroplus: Name from the Greek 'para' meaning 'on the side of'; in taxonomy it is commonly used in generic names to express similarity or relatedness; in the present case it would mean 'next to Etroplus' (S.Kullander, pers.comm. 3/11).

Größe / Gewicht / Alter
Geschlechtsreife: Lm ?  range ? - ? cm
Max length : 16.7 cm SL Männchen/unbestimmt; (Ref. 78623)
Rückenflossenstacheln (insgesamt) : 15 - 17; Rückenflossenweichstrahlen (insgesamt) : 19 - 21; Afterflossenstacheln: 7 - 9; Afterflossenweichstrahlen: 15 - 17. Diagnosis: A member of the deep-bodied clade of Paretroplus and distinguished from all congeners by the presence of a pinstriped lateral pigmentation pattern comprising numerous longitudinal series of prominent black spots on the flanks, owing to the presence of one large spot on each scale; Paretroplus is also unique among congeners in possessing a conspicuous black interorbital stripe and suborbital blotch (Ref. 78623).
