Short description
Chiavi di identificazione | Morfologia | Morfometria
Spine dorsali (totale) : 0; Raggi dorsali molli (totale) : 12; Spine anali: 0; Raggi anali molli: 8. Having 8-12 dark bars wider than interspaces on the body; a broad, dark, inner axial stripe; posterior margin of the last body bar distinctly concave; dorsal fin with a black spot at base of simple rays and first branched ray and a brown one at base of branched rays 3-7; all fins with partly or entirely black rays and hyaline membranes; upper lip smooth, without median incision, folds or furrows.
Seems to prefer stretches with swift current and stony or rocky substrate, but also found over sandy substrate (Ref. 43281).

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.
59153): Low vulnerability (10 of 100).
