Short description Chiavi di identificazione | Morfologia | Morfometria

Raggi dorsali molli (totale) : 10; Raggi anali molli: 8. Microphysogobio zhangi differs from other congeners by the following unique combination of characters: anal fin with 3, 5 rays; pectoral fin with 11-12 rays; scales on lateral line 35-36; transverse scales 7; predorsal scales 9-10; vertebrae 4+30-31; barbel length medium, 53.5-69.9% of eye diameter; medial pad on lower lip divided; body with 6-7 indistinct black horizontally-aligned crossbars; interorbital region with a black crossbar; a thin black vertical stripe throughout the cheek; dorsal fin and caudal fin membranes with indistinct vertically-aligned black lines (Ref. 118057).

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=0.00912 (0.00389 - 0.02140), b=3.10 (2.90 - 3.30), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this (Sub)family-body shape (Ref. 93245).

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

Resilienza (Ref. 120179): Alto, tempo minimo di raddoppiamento della popolazione meno di 15 mesi (Preliminary K or Fecundity.).

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