Size / Gewicht / Alter
Maturity: Lm ?  range ? - ? cm
Max length : 6.0 cm SL Männchen/unbestimmt; (Ref. 188)

Body fairly elongate, belly keeled, with 17 + 9 scutes; about 19 dorsal scutes with low keels from head to dorsal fin origin. Second supra-maxilla paddle-shaped, lower portion larger.

50 = 0.7500 [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.

Trophic level (Ref.
69278): 3.0 ±0.1 se; based on size and trophs of closest relatives
Widerstandsfähigkeit (Ref.
