Environment: milieu / climate zone / depth range / distribution range
Ecologia
; acqua dolce pelagico. Tropical
Africa: upper Lualaba in Democratic Republic of the Congo (Ref. 42032) and Bangwelo-Luapula-Mweru in Democratic Republic of the Congo and Zambia (Ref. 5331, 42032, 95585). Possibly present in the Kafue River system (Ref. 5331, 27607, 42032). Presence in southern Africa (upper Zambezi, Lake Kariba and the Kalomo River in Botswana as reported by Ref. 5331) needs confirmation. Possibly a synonym of R. maunensis (Ref. 52193).

Estimates based on models
Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref.
82804): PD
50 = 0.5078 [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].
Bayesian length-weight: a=0.01148 (0.00528 - 0.02495), b=3.00 (2.82 - 3.18), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this (Sub)family-body shape (Ref.
93245).
Trophic level (Ref.
69278): 3.1 ±0.3 se; based on size and trophs of closest relatives
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).
