Etymology: Benthochromis: Greek, benthos = depth of the sea + Greek, chromis = a fish, perhaps a perch (Ref. 45335); horii: Named for M. Hori of Kyoto University, Japan, the first to identify this fish as an undescribed species (Ref. 74417).

Environment: milieu / climate zone / depth range / distribution range Ökologie

; süßwasser benthopelagisch, usually 60 - 126 m (Ref. 74417). Tropical

Kurzbeschreibung Bestimmungsschlüssel | Morphologie | Morphometrie

Rückenflossenstacheln (insgesamt) : 17 - 19; Rückenflossenweichstrahlen (insgesamt) : 11 - 13; Afterflossenstacheln: 3; Afterflossenweichstrahlen: 9 - 11; Wirbelzahl: 36 - 38. This species is distinguished by the following: eyes relatively small and snout relatively long (eye length usually shorter than snout length, 86.7-105% of snout length), number of dorsal fin rays relatively high (total number of spines and soft rays in dorsal fin usually 30 or 31). Large males (>117.2 mm LS) with long pelvic fin (>30% of standard length LS), a distinct pearl-grey longitudinal line through the upper end of the pectoral fin base, and without a black large blotch on nape (Ref. 74417).

Occurs at depths from 60 to 126 m (Ref. 74417).

Estimates based on models

Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804): PD₅₀ = 0.6250 [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].

Bayesian length-weight: a=0.01514 (0.00700 - 0.03275), b=2.97 (2.80 - 3.14), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this (Sub)family-body shape (Ref. 93245).

Trophic level (Ref. 69278): 3.5 ±0.5 se; based on size and trophs of closest relatives

Widerstandsfähigkeit (Ref. 120179): mittel, Verdopplung der Population dauert 1,4 - 4,4 Jahre. (Assuming Fec<1000).

Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153): Low vulnerability (10 of 100).
