Size / Peso / Age
Maturity: Lm ?  range ? - ? cm
Max length : 12.5 cm SL maschio/sesso non determinato; (Ref. 5259); common length : 10.0 cm SL maschio/sesso non determinato; (Ref. 5259)
Facultative air-breathing in the genus (Ref. 126274); Occurs in swamps, drains and ponds. The species is likely capable of aestivation as individuals are sometimes encountered in mud or beneath logs or stones when pools dry up. Feeds partly on bottom detritus and insects.

Estimates based on models
Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref.
82804): PD
50 = 0.5156 [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].
Bayesian length-weight: a=0.00490 (0.00205 - 0.01170), b=3.12 (2.91 - 3.33), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this (Sub)family-body shape (Ref.
93245).
Trophic level (Ref.
69278): 2.6 ±0.26 se; based on food items.
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).
