Description synthétique Clés d'identification | Morphologie | Morphométrie

Épines dorsales (Total) : 3 - 4. Trichopodus microlepis is distinguished from other congeners by having the following characters: body silvery or grey without distinct markings; dorsal fin with 3-4 spines; 57-65 scales on lateral line; 34-40 transverse scales; and length of dorsal-fin base 14.5-17.3% SL (Ref. 97359).

Obligate air-breathing (Ref. 126274); Found in ponds and swamps (Ref. 43281). Occurs in shallow sluggish or standing water habitats with a lot of aquatic vegetation. Common in the floodplain of the lower Mekong. Feeds on zooplankton, crustaceans and aquatic insects (Ref. 12693). An air-breathing species (Ref. 118402). Marketed fresh (Ref. 12693).

Estimates based on models

Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804): PD₅₀ = 0.5156 [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].

Bayesian length-weight: a=0.01413 (0.00665 - 0.03001), b=3.00 (2.82 - 3.18), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this species & (Sub)family-body (Ref. 93245).

Niveau trophique (Ref. 69278): 3.4 ±0.40 se; based on food items.

Résilience (Ref. 120179): Milieu, temps minimum de doublement de population : 1,4 à 4,4 années (Fec=500-1000 egss (Ref. 1672)).

Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153): Low vulnerability (10 of 100).

Catégorie de prix (Ref. 80766): Unknown.

Nutrients (Ref. 124155): Calcium = 98 [46, 511] mg/100g; Iron = 1.53 [0.69, 3.30] mg/100g; Protein = 19 [17, 21] %; Omega3 = 0.284 [0.111, 0.769] g/100g; Selenium = 28.3 [11.2, 67.4] μg/100g; VitaminA = 33.2 [7.7, 153.6] μg/100g; Zinc = 2.52 [1.22, 4.69] mg/100g (wet weight); based on nutrient studies.
