Short description
Chiavi di identificazione | Morfologia | Morfometria
Spine dorsali (totale) : 0; Raggi dorsali molli (totale) : 13; Spine anali: 0; Raggi anali molli: 8. Row of comparatively large tubercles present on enlarged, elongate scales rows immediately above and below the lateral line scale row on the anterior half of the caudal peduncle; color pattern of 11-15 dorsal saddles, a series of 8- 13 lateral blotches centered along the lateral line, and without a dark spot at anterior base of dorsal fin (Ref. 42961).
Recorded from shallow, clear streams with gravel or sand bottom (Ref. 42961). Juveniles also known from murky water (Ref. 42961).

Estimates based on models
Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref.
82804): PD
50 = 0.5000 [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].
Bayesian length-weight: a=0.00724 (0.00347 - 0.01512), b=3.01 (2.83 - 3.19), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this (Sub)family-body shape (Ref.
93245).
Trophic level (Ref.
69278): 2.8 ±0.3 se; based on size and trophs of closest relatives
Resilienza (Ref.
120179): Alto, tempo minimo di raddoppiamento della popolazione meno di 15 mesi (Preliminary K or Fecundity.).
Fishing Vulnerability (Ref.
59153): Low vulnerability (10 of 100).
