Kurzbeschreibung Bestimmungsschlüssel | Morphologie | Morphometrie

Rückenflossenweichstrahlen (insgesamt) : 8 - 10; Afterflossenweichstrahlen: 6; Wirbelzahl: 34 - 35. This species is distinguished from all its congeners by the remarkable reduction in the laterosensory system lacking the pores s1, s2, s3 and s6 in the supraorbital line and pore i10 in the infraorbital line (vs. presence of, at least, pore i10) and the lower number of pterygiophores of dorsal fin 8 (vs. 9-14) (Ref. 122319).

Occurs in rivers and streams but has not been collected with its congeners. Stomachs of two specimens contained immature aquatic Diptera (Chironomidae and Simuliidae) and Ephemeroptera (Ref. 122319).

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=0.00661 (0.00282 - 0.01550), b=2.99 (2.79 - 3.19), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this (Sub)family-body shape (Ref. 93245).

Trophic level (Ref. 69278): 3.1 ±0.4 se; based on size and trophs of closest relatives

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