Short description पहचान कुंजी | आकृति विज्ञान | मौरफोमैटरिक्स

पृष्ठीय रीढ़ (सम्पूर्ण) : 0; पृष्ठीय सौफट रेज़ (सम्पूर्ण) : 0; गुदा कांटा: 0; ऐनल सौफट रेज़: 60 - 78; जानवरों की रीड़ का जोड़: 44 - 50. Diagnosis: dorsal fin absent; adipose fin always present; inner side of pectoral-fin spine variably denticulate, with small to rather well developed serrations; 60-78 soft rays in anal fin (Ref. 43912, 57127, 81643). Vomerine teeth present (Ref. 43912, 81643). In general no small dark blotch at the base of the caudal fin (Ref. 81643).

Gregarious schooling species confined to larger lakes and rivers (Ref. 43912). Benthic species, occurs in deep water (Ref. 13851). Feeds mainly on small planktonic and benthic insects and crustaceans (Ref. 13851, 43912). Oviparous, eggs are unguarded (Ref. 205). Rarely exceeds 15 cm TL (Ref. 43912). Usually smoked or sun-dried, after which they are very tasty and may fetch high prices; sometimes ground into fish flour or fish meal and stored for long periods in sealed containers as an insurance against famine (Ref. 43912).

Estimates based on models

Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804): PD₅₀ = 0.5312 [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].

Bayesian length-weight: a=0.00550 (0.00326 - 0.00928), b=3.12 (2.97 - 3.27), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this species & (Sub)family-body (Ref. 93245).

Trophic level (Ref. 69278): 3.5 ±0.47 se; based on food items.

Generation time: 1.7 ( na - na) years. Estimated as median ln(3)/K based on 1 growth studies.

लौटाव (Ref. 120179): ऊंचा, न्यूनतम जनसंख्या दुगनी समय अवलागत 15 महीने। (Preliminary K or Fecundity.).

Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153): Low vulnerability (22 of 100).

Price category (Ref. 80766): Unknown.

Nutrients (Ref. 124155): Calcium = 275 [116, 659] mg/100g; Iron = 1.76 [0.85, 3.46] mg/100g; Protein = 16.2 [14.4, 18.0] %; Omega3 = 0.389 [0.155, 0.997] g/100g; Selenium = 63.6 [26.0, 195.5] μg/100g; VitaminA = 61.4 [23.2, 153.2] μg/100g; Zinc = 2.14 [1.45, 3.10] mg/100g (wet weight);
