Biologi     Ordlista (t.ex. epibenthic)

It is typical of rapidly flowing waters, in cascades and creeks with sandy-rocky bottoms, where it is very abundant. Can also be found in calm waters. It can escape its predators by effecting dramatic leaps out of the water. It is a gregarious species which swims constantly near the surface of the water, on the look out for its food in the company of Bryconops melanurus (Ref. 12225).

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=0.01202 (0.00517 - 0.02796), b=3.08 (2.91 - 3.25), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this Genus-body shape (Ref. 93245).
Trofisk nivå (Ref. 69278):  3.5   ±0.5 se; based on size and trophs of closest relatives
Resiliens (Ref. 120179):  Hög, lägsta populationsfördubblingstid mindre än 15 månader (Preliminary K or Fecundity.).
Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153):  Low vulnerability (10 of 100).
