Maturity: Lm ? range ? - ? cm
Max length : 33.5 cm TL самец/пол неопределен; (Ref. 130826)
колючие лучи спинного плавника (общее число) : 1; колючие лучи анального плавника: 0. Diagnosis: gill slits not extending ventrally beyond pectoral-fin insertions; snout over 50% of head length and over 80% of head width; post-ocular length less than 30% of head length; maxillary barbels slightly shorter than head, bearing externally some short and simple ramifications and a broad basal membrane; outer and inner mandibular barbels with numerous tuberculate ramifications; mandibular teeth long, numbering 6-9 (8 in the lectotype); pectoral-fin spines weakly denticulate on inner margin and very slightly crenulated externally; dorsal-fin spine smooth anteriorly and prolonged into a filament; humeral process deep, blunt, granulose and not keeled ventrally; adipose fin long, low and rather close to rayed dorsal fin (Ref. 57223).
Coloration: general appearance rather dark, with ventral areas lighter; outer margins of caudal-fin lobes black-edged (Ref. 57223).
Oviparous (Ref. 205). Maximum total length 323mm (Ref. 57223).

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=0.00933 (0.00303 - 0.02871), b=3.05 (2.80 - 3.30), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this (Sub)family-body shape (Ref.
93245).
Trophic level (Ref.
69278): 2.9 ±0.3 se; based on size and trophs of closest relatives
устойчивость к внешним воздействиям (Ref.
120179): средний (среднего размера), минимальное время удвоения популяции 1.4-4.4 года (Preliminary K or Fecundity.).
Fishing Vulnerability (Ref.
59153): Low vulnerability (24 of 100).
