Luocheng County, ca. 24°47'N, 108°53'E, Guangxi, China. This species coexists with Troglonectes microphthalmus and Bibarba parvoculus.
Biological Notes
Lunghi et al. (2019) conducted a morphometric study of eight species of Sinocyclocheilus. They showed that S. brevis had fully developed eyes. They had samples from one site only (24.78oN, 108.9oE). The smallest sample was 29.24mm SL and the largest 156.11mm SL with a mean of 90.48mm SL.
