Etymology: biamnicus: Derived from the Latin bi, meaning two, and amnicus, meaning inhabitant of a river, in allusion to the fact that the species is distributed in both the Iguaçu and Tibagi basins. A noun in apposition.
Ambiente: milieu / zona climática / intervalo de profundidade / gama de distribuição
Ecologia
; Água doce demersal. Tropical
South America: tributaries to rio Iguaçu, in Santa Catarina and Paraná States, and to the rio Tibagi, Paraná State, both in rio Paraná basin, Brazil.

Maturidade: Lm ?  range ? - ? cm
Max length : 4.0 cm SL macho/indeterminado; (Ref. 93039)
Espinhos dorsais (total) : 2; Raios dorsais moles (total) : 6 - 7; Espinhos anais: 1; Raios anais moles: 5; Vértebras: 28. Can be diagnosed from its congeners by having shorter pectoral-fin spine length (18.6-21.3 vs. 21.4-30.4% SL in remaining species). Additional characters useful for its identification include lower caudal peduncle (7.6-9.0 vs. 9.3-11.0 in Otothyropsis marapoama and 9.7-11.5% SL in Otothyropsis piribebuy), deeper caudal peduncle (7.6-9.0 vs. 6.2-7.6% SL in Otothyropsis polyodon); and dorsal-fin spinelet triangular in shape (vs. spinelet rectangular or quadrangular) (Ref. 93039).
Body shape (shape guide): elongated.
Commensal with midge larvae (Chironomidae) which are attached to the gill opening or more rarely to the posterior process of the cleithrum (Ref. 93039).
