Maturity: L_m ? range ? - ? cm
Max length : 10.0 cm SL Männchen/unbestimmt; (Ref. 4967)

Prefers fast-flowing upper reaches of rivers (Ref. 96588) with rocks and small boulders (Ref. 105400). Also found in residual pools (Ref. 78218). Mouth and dentition suggest that it is a bottom feeder and algal grazer; probably spawns more than once per year (Ref. 96588). Oviparous (Ref. 205).

Estimates based on models

Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804): PD₅₀ = 0.5000 [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].

Bayesian length-weight: a=0.00389 (0.00180 - 0.00842), b=3.12 (2.94 - 3.30), in cm total length, based on all LWR estimates for this body shape (Ref. 93245).

Trophic level (Ref. 69278): 3.2 ±0.4 se; based on size and trophs of closest relatives

Widerstandsfähigkeit (Ref. 120179): hoch, Verdopplung der Population dauert weniger als 15 Monate. (Preliminary K or Fecundity.).

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