Short description
Chiavi di identificazione | Morfologia | Morfometria
Spine dorsali (totale) : 0; Raggi dorsali molli (totale) : 38 - 53; Spine anali: 0; Raggi anali molli: 20 - 32. Body shields in 5 rows; dorsal shields 11 to 15, lateral shields 32 to 47 and ventral 7 to 10.
Adults occur in stretches of rivers with sandy or stony bottom. Feed on benthic organisms. Highly prized fish (Ref. 41072).
The gray morph females in the Amur River reproduce at least every four years (Ref. 40142).

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=0.00257 (0.00160 - 0.00413), b=3.24 (3.11 - 3.37), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this species & Genus-body shape (Ref.
93245).
Trophic level (Ref.
69278): 3.3 ±0.1 se; based on diet studies.
Generation time: 22.0 ( na - na) years. Estimated as median ln(3)/K based on 2
growth studies.
Resilienza (Ref.
120179): Molto basso, tempo minimo di raddoppiamento della popolazione più di 14 anni (tm=8-14; tmax=65; Fec=29,000).
Fishing Vulnerability (Ref.
59153): Very high vulnerability (87 of 100).
Nutrients (Ref.
124155): Calcium = 13.5 [7.7, 23.3] mg/100g; Iron = 0.245 [0.148, 0.387] mg/100g; Protein = 17.5 [15.0, 20.2] %; Omega3 = 0.329 [0.180, 0.595] g/100g; Selenium = 23.9 [12.6, 47.1] μg/100g; VitaminA = 4.56 [1.63, 12.77] μg/100g; Zinc = 0.469 [0.334, 0.657] mg/100g (wet weight);
