колючие лучи спинного плавника (общее число) : 16 - 20. Scales on chest and belly are abruptly different in size compared to those on flank. No scales on cheek.
Essentially riverine with tendency to colonize quieter waters; near bands of reeds and vegetation fringing the river; very small eggs, plant and insect debris and small crustaceans found in stomach; most probably a mouthbrooder (Ref. 28906).

Estimates based on models
Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref.
82804): PD
50 = 0.5001 [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).
устойчивость к внешним воздействиям (Ref.
120179): высокий, минимальное время удвоения популяции до 15 месяцев (Preliminary K or Fecundity.).
Fishing Vulnerability (Ref.
59153): Low vulnerability (10 of 100).
