Etymology: Schistura: Greek, schizein = to divide + Greek, oura = tail; an allusion to forked caudal fins (Ref. 45335); vinciguerrae: Named for Decio Vinciguerra, a former curator in MCSNG who studied Burmese fishes..

Environment: milieu / climate zone / depth range / distribution range
Ecologia
; acqua dolce benthopelagico. Tropical
Asia: Irrawaddy and Salween basins in Myanmar and the Irrawaddy basin in China. Likely to occur in the Salween basin in Yunnan, but needs confirmation (Ref. 39226). Reported from India (Ref. 4832).
Size / Peso / Age
Maturity: Lm ?  range ? - ? cm
Max length : 8.0 cm NG maschio/sesso non determinato; (Ref. 94495)
Raggi dorsali molli (totale) : 12 - 13; Raggi anali molli: 8. Distinguished from most other nemacheilines by its color pattern: the bars in front of dorsal fin are conspicuously thinner than those behind, usually united in pairs (or more) at their upper extremity. This color pattern is shared with other species. It is distinguished from S. poculi by 9+8 branched caudal rays (versus 8+7), from S. mahnerti and S. bella by the absence of sexual dimorphism (both species have a well developed suborbital flap in males) and by details of the color pattern (Ref. 39226).
Occurs in small streams with pebbly bottom (Ref. 41236). Found in channels with very swift current and bare bottom. The ovaries of a 6.63 cm SL female contain ripe ovulae of about 1.6 mm in diameter (Ref. 39226).

Estimates based on models
Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref.
82804): PD
50 = 0.5000 [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].
Bayesian length-weight: a=0.00692 (0.00311 - 0.01538), b=3.02 (2.85 - 3.19), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this Genus-body shape (Ref.
93245).
Trophic level (Ref.
69278): 3.0 ±0.3 se; based on size and trophs of closest relatives
Resilienza (Ref.
120179): Medio, tempo minimo di raddoppiamento della popolazione 1.4 - 4.4 anni (Preliminary K or Fecundity.).
Fishing Vulnerability (Ref.
