Max length : 45.0 cm TL macho / no sexado; (Ref. 86798); common length : 31.8 cm TL macho / no sexado; (Ref. 12193); peso máximo publicado: 3.1 kg (Ref. 4699); edad máxima reportada: 9 años (Ref. 12193)

Inhabits lakes, ponds and pools of small to large rivers (Ref. 5723, 86798). Occurs at depths <14 m (Ref. 120827). Juveniles feed on small invertebrates such as cladocerans, copepods, and midge larvae. Adults are piscivorous, consuming shad, silversides, and occasional young sunfish (Ref. 10294). Spawns near the surface (Ref. 120818).

Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804): PD₅₀ = 0.5781 [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].

Bayesian length-weight: a=0.01096 (0.00607 - 0.01980), b=3.08 (2.91 - 3.25), in cm Total Length, based on LWR estimates for this species & (Sub)family-body (Ref. 93245).

Nivel trófico (Ref. 69278): 4.0 ±0.68 se; based on food items.

Resiliencia (Ref. 120179): Medio, población duplicada en un tiempo mínimo de 1.4-4.4 años (K=0.23-0.73; tmax=9).

Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153): Low to moderate vulnerability (26 of 100).
