Short description
Chiavi di identificazione | Morfologia | Morfometria
Diagnosis: rounded to slightly flattened body; differs from T. brichardi and T. depressum in the possession of a lower number of body scales pored by the lateral-line system (33-35); some males with several vertical rows of maculae in caudal fin; snout slightly more pointed than in T. brichardi; eyes in a somewhat more elevated position (Ref. 52307).
Rheophilic; pair-bonding, cave spawner (Ref. 52307).

Estimates based on models
Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref.
82804): PD
50 = 0.5312 [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].
Bayesian length-weight: a=0.01000 (0.00244 - 0.04107), b=3.04 (2.81 - 3.27), in cm total length, based on all LWR estimates for this body shape (Ref.
93245).
Trophic level (Ref.
69278): 3.3 ±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).
