Saugeye are difficult to identify based on external characteristics alone due to their similarity with both parent species. For example, 27% of presumed walleye sampled in the Ohio River were later determined to be saugeye through genetic techniques. [2]

The new species was identified by its coloring and body shape, the study said. DNA analysis found the new species had between about 12% and 19% genetic divergence from other snakehead fish in Myanmar.
