Short description
Chiavi di identificazione | Morfologia | Morfometria
Its supraoccipital process doesn't reach the anterior nuchal plate, 43-45 vertebrae, maxillary barbels that reaches between the adpressed anal-fin end and caudal-fin origin, epiphyseal branch of supraorbital laterosensory canal appearing as two distantly-positioned pores and a black mark at distal third of dorsal fin, between dorsal-fin spine and third branched ray.

Estimates based on models
Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref.
82804): PD
50 = No PD50 data [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].
Bayesian length-weight: a=0.00832 (0.00383 - 0.01808), b=2.97 (2.80 - 3.14), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this Genus-body shape (Ref.
93245).
Trophic level (Ref.
69278): 3.4 ±0.5 se; based on size and trophs of closest relatives
Resilienza (Ref.
120179): Medio, tempo minimo di raddoppiamento della popolazione 1.4 - 4.4 anni (Preliminary K or Fecundity.).
Fishing Vulnerability (Ref.
