Short description पहचान कुंजी | आकृति विज्ञान | मौरफोमैटरिक्स

पृष्ठीय रीढ़ (सम्पूर्ण) : 1; पृष्ठीय सौफट रेज़ (सम्पूर्ण) : 6 - 7; गुदा कांटा: 0; ऐनल सौफट रेज़: 12 - 13; जानवरों की रीड़ का जोड़: 31 - 37. Body elongate and slightly compressed. Maxillary barbels extending beyond the pelvic fins, often to the end of the anal fin. Dorsal spine weak, finely serrated on its inner edge. Adipose fin small, inserted much behind rayed dorsal fin but anterior to the anal fin. Color in life varies with age; generally delicate gray-silvery to shining golden, with several (about 5) pale blue or dark brown to deep black longitudinal on side. A narrow dusky spot often present on the shoulder. The fins glass, with dark tips (Ref. 4792).

Facultative air-breathing (Ref. 126274); Adults inhabit standing and flowing waters. Usually found among marginal vegetation in lakes and swamps with a mud substrate. Feed on plants, shrimps, insects, mollusks and fish (Ref. 6028). Oviparous, distinct pairing possibly like other members of the same family (Ref. 205).

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=0.01413 (0.00918 - 0.02175), b=2.95 (2.83 - 3.07), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this species & (Sub)family-body (Ref. 93245).

Trophic level (Ref. 69278): 3.1 ±0.1 se; based on diet studies.

लौटाव (Ref. 120179): माध्यम, न्यूनतम जनसंख्या दुगनी होने का समय 1.4 - 4.4 वर्ष। (Assuming Fec < 10,000).

Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153): Low vulnerability (16 of 100).

Price category (Ref. 80766): Unknown.

Nutrients (Ref. 124155): Calcium = 323 [165, 622] mg/100g; Iron = 2.33 [1.28, 4.04] mg/100g; Protein = 15.9 [15.0, 16.9] %; Omega3 = 0.177 [0.088, 0.336] g/100g; Selenium = 46.3 [23.3, 97.4] μg/100g; VitaminA = 27.6 [8.9, 79.1] μg/100g; Zinc = 1.91 [1.22, 2.88] mg/100g (wet weight); based on nutrient studies.
