Short description
Chiavi di identificazione | Morfologia | Morfometria
Raggi dorsali molli (totale) : 7; Raggi anali molli: 15 - 17; Vertebre: 40 - 43.
Inhabits clear, swift, moderate to large high gradient streams. Occurs in swift shallow riffles with gravel, cobble or large stone substrate, but can occasionally be found in shallower pools (Ref. 57745).

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=0.01000 (0.00244 - 0.04107), b=3.04 (2.81 - 3.27), in cm total length, based on all LWR estimates for this body shape (Ref.
93245).
Trophic level (Ref.
69278): 3.3 ±0.4 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).
