Short description Chiavi di identificazione | Morfologia | Morfometria

Spine dorsali (totale) : 0; Raggi dorsali molli (totale) : 6 - 7; Raggi anali molli: 4; Vertebre: 35 - 36. Belongs to the Oreoglanis delacouri species group as it lacks a distinct median notch on the posterior margin of the lower lip. Can be distinguished from other members of the genus by the following combination of characters: maxillary barbel with rounded tip, dentary tooth patches separated by approximately one-quarter their width, tip of pectoral fin reaching pelvic-fin origin, body depth at anus 10.9-13.0 % SL, and adipose fin confluent with upper procurrent caudal-fin rays, caudal peduncle length 20.3-24.4 % SL, caudal peduncle depth 5.4-6.3 % SL, caudal peduncle depth 3.31-4.23 times in its length and an emarginate caudal fin (Ref. 83406).

Occurs in a rocky, fast-flowing stream (Ref. 83406).

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=0.00589 (0.00260 - 0.01333), b=3.08 (2.88 - 3.28), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this (Sub)family-body shape (Ref. 93245).

Trophic level (Ref. 69278): 3.1 ±0.4 se; based on size and trophs of closest relatives

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