Short description पहचान कुंजी | आकृति विज्ञान | मौरफोमैटरिक्स

This species differs from its congeners by the following characters: anterior fontanel variably absent; posterior fontanel reduced to a small circular foramen and entirely located on the parieto-supraoccipital (Ref. 83636).

The rivers where the species was captured is of crystalline waters, with huge stones and sandy bottom. Temperature at the time of the collection is 17ºC. This species is associated with Astroblepus sp. One individual has 138 mature ova. Stomach contents include small shrimps and larvae of macroinvertebrates. The forest comprise of plants like the eucalyptus (Eucalyptus globulus), willow (Salix humboldtiana), Rubus floribundus and pine (Cupressus lusitanica) (Ref. 83636).

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=0.00977 (0.00400 - 0.02388), b=3.04 (2.84 - 3.24), 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).
