Maturity: Lm ?, range 11 - ? cm
Max length : 25.0 cm TL macho / no sexado; (Ref. 5723); common length : 11.3 cm TL macho / no sexado; (Ref. 12193); edad máxima reportada: 9 años (Ref. 12193)
Occurs in various habitats, but most common in rocky riffles and runs of clear mountain creeks and small to medium rivers. Rarely found in lakes (Ref. 1998). Feeds on diatoms, other algae, higher plants, dipterous larvae and pupae (Ref. 1998). Spawning adults may be preyed upon by birds and mammals while small individuals may be preyed upon by stream salmonids (Ref. 1998). Edible.

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=0.00631 (0.00316 - 0.01259), b=3.09 (2.90 - 3.28), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this species & (Sub)family-body (Ref.
93245).
Nivel trófico (Ref.
69278): 2.3 ±0.18 se; based on food items.
Generation time: 3.9 ( na - na) years. Estimated as median ln(3)/K based on 1
growth studies.
