The new species is distinguished from all other species of Parabotia by the following characters: Its snout is shorter than the head length after eye; caudal-peduncle depth is longer than its length; the ratio of head length/interorbital width is 3.2~3.5; there are many round spots on head back, behind and under lateral line. It got the name from brevirostris.
