Etymology: Ptychochromis: Greek, ptyx, = fold + Greek, chromis = a fish, perhaps a perch (Ref. 45335); makira: The species is named after the region in which the type specimens were collected (Ref. 57663).
Environment: milieu / climate zone / depth range / distribution range

Africa: Antainambalana River, northeastern Madagascar (Ref. 57663, 83427).
Tamanho / Peso / Idade
Maturity: Lm ? range ? - ? cm
Max length : 14.6 cm SL macho/indeterminado; (Ref. 57663)
Espinhos dorsais (total): 13; Raios dorsais (total): 12; Espinhos anais 3; Raios anais : 8 - 9; Vértebras: 27. It is distinguished from all congeners by the presence of three laterosensory pore foramina on the lachrymal and a unique pigmentation pattern consisting of four distinctive V-shaped black bars on the flanks superimposed on an overall whitish base (Ref. 57663). Extremely deep-bodied and laterally compressed (Ref. 57663). It has a total of six infraorbital bones (Ref. 57663). In preservative, the ground coloration is pale creamy white to yellow, body much lighter ventrally; 4 black V-shaped bands present on flanks, which extend ventrally to lateraly midline; fins pale yellow to grayish and blackish terminally, except pectoral fins (Ref. 57663).
Although once common throughout the region of Maroansetra, Ptychochromis makira has suffered a severe decline in abundance in recent years, according to local fishermen (Ref. 57663). They report that the species is now rare (Ref. 57663).
