Etymology: Gymnotus: Greek, gymnos = naked (Ref. 45335); jonasi: Named in honor of Jonas Alves de Oliveira, a Brazilian naturalist working for the Mamirauá Sustainable Development Reserve (Ref. 41292).
Eponymy: Jonas Alves de Oliveira is a naturalist and technician at Mamirauá Sustainable Development Reserve, Amazonas, Brazil. He co-wrote: Chromosomal diversity in three species of electric fish (Apteronotidae, Gymnotiformes) from the Amazon Basin (2014). (Ref. 128868), visit book page.

Description synthétique Clés d'identification | Morphologie | Morphométrie

Electric organs present.

Facultative air-breathing in the genus (Ref. 126274); Recorded from root mass of floating meadows in the whitewater floodplains of the Tefé region where it is common although patchy in distribution. Adults both breed and forage in the meadows and are never encountered in other floodplain habitats such as flooded forests. Both juveniles and adults feed on small aquatic animals, especially chironomid larvae (Ref. 41292).

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=0.01000 (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).

Niveau trophique (Ref. 69278): 2.5 ±0.50 se; based on food items.

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).
