Etymology: Teleocichla: Greek, tele, telos = perfect + Greek, kichle = wrasse (Ref. 45335); centisquama: From the number of longitudinal scales ['centum' = a hundred; 'squama' = scales], the highest recorded for the genus.

Max length : 4.0 cm SL ذكر/ مختلط الجنس; (Ref. 46528)
الأشواك الظهرية (المجموع) : 18 - 20; الأشعة الظهرية الناعمة (المجموع) : 9 - 11; شوكة شرجية: 3; أشعه شرجية لينه: 8 - 9; فقرات: 33. Slender-bodied (body depth 10.5-13.9% SL), with continuous lateral line and 113-129 longitudinal scales. Compared to other congeners, orbital diameter smaller (5.7-7.6%SL versus 7.3-10.6); caudal peduncle depth lower (7.2-8.2% SL versus 8.8-10.4). Ctenoid scales restricted to posterior quarter of the body. Caudal fin rounded. Pectoral fin nearly symmetrical, 8th ray longest, with lower edge slightly thickened (Ref. 46528).
Body shape (shape guide): elongated; Cross section: oval.
A rheophilic species which dwells on rocky bottom rapids with water flow up to 1.7 m/sec. Perches solitary on top of boulders. Forages on rock surfaces and picks mostly on benthic preys; also feeds on micro-crustaceans (cladocerans, ostracods, copepods), immature aquatic insects (chironomids, ephemeropterans, trichopterans) and minute clams (Ref. 46528).
