is found in habitats with moderate to fast flowing waters over rocky and sandy bottoms. The species is found in both acidic, black waters as well as in clear, but slightly acid waters. In the Caura, it was found in rapids covered by vascular plants (Podostemonacae), as well as in small springs with sandy bottoms. This species inhabits the upper part of the water column in the main channel, usually in schools with other characid species. Cursory examination shows that food items include several groups of terrestrial insects.

Caura populations also have more numerous lateral and pored scales but fewer total gill rakers, on average, than other populations: 42-45, modally 44 (vs. 41-44, modally 42) lateral scales; 44-48, modally 47 (vs. 43-46, modally 45) pored scales; and 14-19, modally 16 (vs. 17-21, modally 18) gill rakers, respectively. Without other evidence, we do not recognize these populations as separate species due to the large degree of overlap among them. These differences may be due to environmental influences upon the phenotype (see Sidlauskas et al. 2006); for example, the waters of the
