> Characiformes (Characins) > Characidae (Characins; tetras) > Stethaprioninae
Etymology: Hyphessobrycon: Greek, hyphesson, -on, -on = a little smaller + Greek, bryko = to bite (Ref. 45335).
Eponymy: Arthur Scholze (1881–1956) was co-owner of Scholze & Pötzschke, a Berlin aquarium supply and tropical fish importation company, in which capacity he gave specimens to the Berlin Zoological Museum, including the holotype of this species. (Ref. 128868), visit book page.

Life cycle and mating behavior Maturità | Riproduzione | Deposizione | Uova | Fecundity | Larve

Before spawning takes place in the tank, male carries out a courtship display in front of the female. Female lays eggs at random and eggs hatch in about 30 hours (Ref. 7020).

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=0.00955 (0.00428 - 0.02132), b=3.12 (2.93 - 3.31), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this (Sub)family-body shape (Ref. 93245).

Trophic level (Ref. 69278): 2.9 ±0.31 se; based on food items.

Resilienza (Ref. 120179): Alto, tempo minimo di raddoppiamento della popolazione meno di 15 mesi (Preliminary K or Fecundity.).

Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153): Low vulnerability (10 of 100).

Price category (Ref. 80766): Unknown.
