Taille / Poids / Âge
Maturity: Lm ?  range ? - ? cm
Max length : 13.8 cm TL mâle / non sexé; (Ref. 38450)
Similar to D. tetrabarbatus but differs in the following aspects: by not having a projected part of snout; more lateral line scales; longer body, 3.9-4.5 times its depth.
Occurs in torrential waters of mountain areas, clinging to the substratum using its mouth sucking disc (Ref. 38450).

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=0.01000 (0.00244 - 0.04107), b=3.04 (2.81 - 3.27), in cm total length, based on all LWR estimates for this body shape (Ref.
93245).
Résilience (Ref.
120179): Haut, temps minimum de doublement de population inférieur à 15 mois (Preliminary K or Fecundity.).
Fishing Vulnerability (Ref.
59153): Low vulnerability (10 of 100).
