Short description Identification keys | Morphology | Morphometrics

Dorsal soft rays (total): 3; Anal soft rays: 2 - 3. Metamorphosed females distinguished by the following characteristics: escal bulb with distal prolongation, conical at base and distally more or less deeply bifurcated; short posterior appendage, conical or compressed; absence of additional escal appendage; barbel with long undivided stem and a distal tassel of branches; stem of barbel without filaments or lateral branches; distal tassel more or less distinctly divided into 3-4 basal and 3 terminal branches; juvenile female with concentration of subdermal pigment on caudal peduncle; parasitic males with pointed sphenotic spines (Ref. 86949).

Estimates based on models

Preferred temperature (Ref. 123201): 1 - 15.2, mean 5.3 °C (based on 980 cells).
Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804):  PD50 = 0.5000   [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].
Bayesian length-weight: a=0.01995 (0.00906 - 0.04395), b=3.01 (2.83 - 3.19), in cm total length, based on all LWR estimates for this body shape (Ref. 93245).
Trophic level (Ref. 69278):  3.7   ±0.6 se; based on size and trophs of closest relatives
Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153):  Low vulnerability (10 of 100).
