from only a single specimen (only one specimen was obtained in spite of intensive sampling lasting about an hour on each of three separate occasions at the type locality) is justifiable in this case because of the clear differences in the morphology of this species from all its congeners. These differences are present in morphological characters (e.g. length of adipose-fin base, depth of caudal peduncle) that have been shown to be useful for diagnosing other congeners (Ng, 2006a; 2006b; Ng &amp; Edds, 2005).
