North America: widely distributed throughout Canada and south to Virginia and Texas, USA.

Length at first maturity / Tamaño / Peso / Age

Maturity: L_m 4.2 range ? - ? cm
Max length : 13.0 cm TL macho / no sexado; (Ref. 5723); common length : 8.6 cm TL macho / no sexado; (Ref. 12193); edad máxima reportada: 4 años (Ref. 12193)

Adults inhabit lakes and pools and runs of medium to large rivers. Most common in clear water over sand or gravel. Form schools (Ref. 1998). Move to the surface at dusk to feed on microcrustaceans, midge larvae, and algae; descends to deeper waters at daybreak (Ref. 1998). Are preyed upon by birds (gulls, terns, mergansers, cormorants) and fishes (Ref. 1998). 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=0.00427 (0.00228 - 0.00799), b=3.05 (2.88 - 3.22), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this species & (Sub)family-body (Ref. 93245).

Nivel trófico (Ref. 69278): 2.8 ±0.29 se; based on food items.

Generation time: 1.3 ( na - na) years. Estimated as median ln(3)/K based on 1 growth studies.

Resiliencia (Ref. 120179): Alto, población duplicada en un tiempo mínimo inferior a 15 meses (tm=1; K=0.87; tmax=4; Fec=2,990).

Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153): Low vulnerability (15 of 100).

Price category (Ref. 80766): Unknown.
