Biology     Glossary (e.g. epibenthic)

This species is found in a karst cave at altitude of 232 m. There exists an underground stream 30 m after entering the cave and about 12 m beneath the surface of the cave entrance. This fish occurs in pools with mud and cobblestone beds, 5-50 m2 area and 1-3 m depth. This is syntopic with Oreonectes microphthalmus Du et al. 2008, Sinocyclocheilus brevis Lan & Chen 1992 and Pterocryptis anomala (Herre, 1933) (Ref. 98800).

Estimates based on models

Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804):  PD50 = 0.7500   [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):  3.2   ±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).
