Short description Identification keys | Morphology | Morphometrics

Oxynoemacheilus euphraticus can be diagnosed from the other congeners in the Euphrates and Tigris drainage by a combination of characters, none of them unique. It shares with other members of a group of species (O. argyrogramma, O. bergianus, O. erdali, O. hanae, O. karunensis, O. longipinnis, O. kurdistanicus, O. parvinae, and O. paucilepis) in having a suborbital groove in males (vs. absent in O. chomanicus, O. frenatus, O. gyndes, O. hazarensis, O. kaynaki, O. kiabii and O. zagrosensis) and a deeply emarginate or forked caudal fin (vs. slightly emarginate or truncate in O. chomanicus, O. frenatus, O. gyndes, O. hazarensis, O. kaynaki, O. kiabii and O. zagrosensis) (Ref. 115649).

Estimates based on models

Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804):  PD50 = 0.5000   [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].
Bayesian length-weight: a=0.00676 (0.00404 - 0.01131), b=3.00 (2.86 - 3.14), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this species & Genus-body shape (Ref. 93245).
Trophic level (Ref. 69278):  2.8   ±0.3 se; based on size and trophs of closest relatives
Resilience (Ref. 120179):  Medium, minimum population doubling time 1.4 - 4.4 years (Preliminary K or Fecundity.).
Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153):  Low vulnerability (10 of 100).
