Etymology: Hasemania: Because of John D. Haseman, the American collector of fishes (Ref. 45335); nambiquara: The specific epithet nambiquara refers to the Nambiquara, an indigenous group from the region of the upper Rio Tapajós drainage, near the type locality..

Short description Identification keys | Morphology | Morphometrics

Dorsal soft rays (total): 11; Anal soft rays: 20 - 23. Diagnosed from all other species of Hasemania by the unique presence of a broad black band, situated ventral to midlateral line, and extending from the humeral region to the caudal-fin, and by the presence of a black vertically-elongate humeral spot. Other useful distinguishing characters include a higher number of maxillary teeth with more cusps (two or three tri- to pentacuspid teeth vs. none, one, or two conical or bicuspid teeth in Hasemania hanseni, Hasemania maxilaris, Hasemania melanura, and Hasemania nana); and higher number of branched anal-fin rays (16-19 vs. 11-16 in Hasemania crenuchoides, Hasemania melanura, and Hasemania nana) (Ref. 75743).

Occurs along the margins of semilentic stretches of a shallow, clear water river, with sand and leaves on the bottom and a moderate amount of riparian vegetation (Ref. 75743).

Estimates based on models

Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804): PD₅₀ = 0.5020 [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].

Bayesian length-weight: a=0.01000 (0.00244 - 0.04107), b=3.04 (2.81 - 3.27), in cm total length, based on all LWR estimates for this body shape (Ref. 93245).

Trophic level (Ref. 69278): 3.0 ±0.4 se; based on size and trophs of closest relatives

Resilience (Ref. 120179): High, minimum population doubling time less than 15 months (Preliminary K or Fecundity.).

Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153): Low vulnerability (10 of 100).
