Biologia     Glossario (es. epibenthic)

Inhabit clear, fast rocky riffles of creeks and small to medium rivers (Ref. 5723); also found in streams (Ref. 10294). Adults feed on midge and blackfly larvae, with baetid and heptageniid mayfly nymphs, hydropsychid and hydroptilid caddis larvae, and water mites (Ref. 10294). Eggs are found buried in the substrate (Ref. 7043).

Eggs are left buried in small gravel and pebbles (Ref. 74730).

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=0.00537 (0.00235 - 0.01227), b=3.14 (2.94 - 3.34), in cm Total Length, based on LWR estimates for this (Sub)family-body shape (Ref. 93245).
Trophic level (Ref. 69278):  3.3   ±0.5 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).
