Issue
This has been a popular aquarium fish for over 50 years but was just given a name in 1997. P. zigzag is a relatively small species with a broad, almost black zigzag band across the body. Small specimens can be confused with Copella nigrofasciata but in C. nigrofasciata the black band is straight and there is a row of red spots along its dorsal border. Eschmeyer, 1998:2243 [listed].

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=0.00631 (0.00271 - 0.01467), b=3.08 (2.88 - 3.28), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this (Sub)family-body shape (Ref. 93245).

Trophic level (Ref. 69278): 3.2 ±0.4 se; based on size and trophs of closest relatives

Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153): Low vulnerability (10 of 100).
