Short description Chiavi di identificazione | Morfologia | Morfometria

This species can be distinguished from its congeners by this set of characters: higher number of lateral line scales 50-54 (vs. 30-50, except B. terrabensis with 47-54); higher count of scales between the lateral line and the dorsal fin origin 9-11 (vs. 4-9) and between the lateral line and pelvic fin origin 8-10 (vs. 2-8); more scales between lateral line and anal fin origin 8-10 (vs. 2-8, except B. terrabensis with 6-9); more predorsal scales 16-18 (vs. 9-16, except B. huilae with 14-19 scales, B. galvisi with 12-17 and B. tolimae with 13-17) (Ref. 83586).

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=0.01413 (0.00599 - 0.03330), b=2.98 (2.80 - 3.16), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this Genus-body shape (Ref. 93245).

Trophic level (Ref. 69278): 2.6 ±0.3 se; based on size and trophs of closest relatives

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