Size / Peso / Age
Maturity: Lm ?  range ? - ? cm
Max length : 9.3 cm SL maschio/sesso non determinato; (Ref. 39226)
Raggi dorsali molli (totale) : 12; Raggi anali molli: 8. A member of the group of species with complete or nearly complete lateral line, 8 1/2 branched dorsal rays, 9+8 branched caudal rays and no sexual dimorphism. Its small eyes (2.4-3.4% SL, 13-18% HL, 2.5-3.0 times in interorbital width) and its peculiar color pattern consisting in 13-18 thin irregularly set bars distinguish it from any other species. Emarginate caudal fin (Ref. 39226).
Inhabits hill streams (Ref. 12041). Feeds on insect larvae (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.
