Max length : 11.6 cm SL mâle / non sexé; (Ref. 49783); common length : 10.0 cm NG mâle / non sexé; (Ref. 45563)
Rayons mous dorsaux (Total) : 10 - 11; Rayons mous anaux: 7 - 8. Can be distinguished from its congeners by having no barbel, 45-47 lateral line scales, no semicircular black mark on middle of each caudal lobe, no blackish band across dorsal fin, a shallow groove between anterior edge and central callous pad of mental adhesive disc, a mental adhesive disc reaching beyond vertical of posterior margin of eye, predorsal scales smaller than flank scales and embedded in skin, a larger scaleless midventral region extended as far as to reach anus, and a slender caudal peduncle (depth 46.4-56.1% of its length) (Ref. 49783).

Estimates based on models
Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref.
82804): PD
50 = 0.5625 [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].
Bayesian length-weight: a=0.00724 (0.00339 - 0.01546), b=3.06 (2.88 - 3.24), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this (Sub)family-body shape (Ref.
93245).
Résilience (Ref.
120179): Haut, temps minimum de doublement de population inférieur à 15 mois (Preliminary K or Fecundity.).
Fishing Vulnerability (Ref.
59153): Low vulnerability (10 of 100).
