Short description
Identification keys | Morphology | Morphometrics
Diagnosed from its congeners in Europe by the following combination of characters: pelvic fin origin beneath base of branched dorsal rays 2-4; back between nape and end of dorsal base with 2-4 dark blotches; caudal fin slightly emarginate; caudal peduncle depth 1.4-1.8 times in its length, 1.4-1.6 times in body depth (Ref. 59043).
Facultative or obligate air-breathing (Ref. 126274); Inhabits streams and rivers with stone and gravel bottom (Ref. 59043).

Estimates based on models
Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref.
82804): PD
50 = 0.5000 [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].
Bayesian length-weight: a=0.00708 (0.00336 - 0.01491), b=3.01 (2.84 - 3.18), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this (Sub)family-body shape (Ref.

Trophic level (Ref.
69278): 2.8 ±0.3 se; based on size and trophs of closest relatives
Resilience (Ref.
120179): High, minimum population doubling time less than 15 months (tmax=2).
Fishing Vulnerability (Ref.
