Etymology: Enteromius: Greek, enteron = intestine + Greek, myo, mys = muscle (Ref. 45335); walshae: This species is named for Gina Walsh of the University of Witwatersrand, South Africa, whose ongoing research continues to enhance conservation efforts throughout the region (Ref. 119360).
Eponymy: Gina Walsh is (2015>) an Independent Research Associate Freshwater Ecologist at the University of Witwatersrand, South Africa, and an independent consultant at Flora, Fauna & Man Ecological Services. [...] (Ref. 128868), visit book page.

Épines dorsales (Total) : 0; Rayons mous dorsaux (Total) : 11; Épines anales: 0; Rayons mous anaux: 8 - 9; Vertèbres: 30 - 31. Diagnosis: This species is readily distinguished from all congeners by the presence of a flexible, weakly ossified, and smooth-bordered last unbranched dorsal-fin ray, well-developed barbels, and a straight and complete lateral line in combination with a characteristic pigmentation patterning consisting of a distinctive, rounded black spot at the base of and extending over the first rays of the anal fin and a prominent, darkly pigmented blotch over the base of the anterior dorsal-fin rays (Ref. 119360).

Found in small, forested streams where water levels remain low throughout most of the rainy season (Ref. 119360). It feeds principally on detritus and organic debris; guts contain detritus, sand grains, some chironomid larval head cases and other fragmented, unidentifiable insect remains (Ref. 119360).

Estimates based on models

Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804): PD₅₀ = No PD50 data [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].

Bayesian length-weight: a=0.01175 (0.00447 - 0.03086), b=3.01 (2.78 - 3.24), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this (Sub)family-body shape (Ref. 93245).

Niveau trophique (Ref. 69278): 3.0 ±0.3 se; based on size and trophs of closest relatives

Résilience (Ref. 120179): Haut, temps minimum de doublement de population inférieur à 15 mois (Preliminary K or Fecundity.).

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