Short description
Bestämningsnycklar | Morfologi | Morfometri
Can be diagnosed by having snout depth 6-8 times in its length and snout length more than half of head length (Ref. 59043).
Found mostly amongst detritus or vegetation over shallow muddy bottom (Ref. 6733). Ovoviviparous (Ref. 205). The male carries the eggs in a brood pouch which is found under the tail (Ref. 205).
