Etymology: Crenicichla: Latin, crenulatus = cut, clipped + Greek, kichle = wrasse (Ref. 45335); tapii: The specific name tapii is a Guaraní word (tapií), means tapir (Tapirus), in reference to the subterminal mouth and the concave head of the species associated with its grazing semi-herbivorous mode of feeding similar to that of the tapir but highly untypical for the generally predatory Crenicichla..

Grootte / Gewicht / Leeftijd

Maturity: L_m ? range ? - ? cm
Max length : 12.0 cm SL mannelijk / geslacht onbekend; (Ref. 104794)

Relatively common only in the main channel of the Iguazú River, where they can be observed in schools on the flat-rock substrate from the walkways over the river grazing on periphyton. Always encountered in direct association with flat slab-like exposed rocky bottoms with epiphyte growths, never above gravel or soft sediment-covered bottoms. Grazes on periphyton (Ref. 104794).

Estimates based on models

Fylogenetische diversiteitsindex (Ref. 82804): PD₅₀ = 0.5000 [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].

Bayesian length-weight: a=0.01514 (0.00706 - 0.03245), b=3.04 (2.86 - 3.22), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this (Sub)family-body shape (Ref. 93245).

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

Weerstandsvermogen (Ref. 120179): Hoog, minimale populatieverdubbelingstijd minder dan 15 maanden (Preliminary K or Fecundity.).

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