Short description Chiavi di identificazione | Morfologia | Morfometria

Spine dorsali (totale) : 1; Raggi dorsali molli (totale) : 6; Raggi anali molli: 12 - 14; Vertebre: 36 - 37. Differs from all other species of the genus Glyptothorax, except for Glyptothorax siamensis, by the possession of a blackish brown body with indistinct pale longitudinal stripes on the lateral line and mid-dorsal regions. Can be differentiated from Glyptothorax siamensis in having a smaller eye with eye diameter 6.3-7.2% HL (vs. 7.5-11.2) and a thoracic adhesive apparatus with less convex lateral edges and absence of anastomosing striae (vs. presence). Distinguished from other congeners by the following characters: caudal peduncle length 18.6-21.0% SL; caudal peduncle depth 7.9-9.4% SL; vertebrae 36-37; tubercles on the dorsal surface of the head with a single, median ridge; pale markings on the nuchal pale absent; length of adipose-fin base 12.3-14.5% SL (Ref. 78392).

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=0.00813 (0.00371 - 0.01783), b=3.00 (2.82 - 3.18), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this Genus-body shape (Ref. 93245).

Trophic level (Ref. 69278): 3.2 ±0.4 se; based on size and trophs of closest relatives

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