Etymology: Pareutropius: Greek, par = beside, near + Greek, eu = well + Greek, tropis = keel, in reference to the compressed body of the fish; longifilis: From the Latin "longus" (long) and "filum" (filament), referring to the long barbels of this species (Ref. 43912).

Short description Chiavi di identificazione | Morfologia | Morfometria

Spine dorsali (totale) : 1; Raggi dorsali molli (totale) : 3 - 4; Spine anali: 0; Raggi anali molli: 50. Diagnosis: two pairs of mandibular barbels; adipose fin small; dorsal fin with only 3-4 soft branched rays; at least 50 branched anal fin rays; 13-15 gill rakers on lower part of anterior branchial arch (Ref. 43912).

Inhabits flowing rivers (Ref. 4967). Feeds at least partly on aquatic and terrestrial insects (Ref. 43912). Oviparous, eggs are unguarded (Ref. 205). Maximum reported total length about 11 cm (Ref. 43912).

Estimates based on models

Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804): PD₅₀ = 0.5625 [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].

Bayesian length-weight: a=0.00589 (0.00269 - 0.01291), b=3.03 (2.84 - 3.22), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this (Sub)family-body shape (Ref. 93245).

Trophic level (Ref. 69278): 3.2 ±0.5 se; based on size and trophs of closest relatives

Resilienza (Ref. 120179): Basso, tempo minimo di raddoppiamento della popolazione 4.5 - 14 anni (Assuming fec < 100).

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

Pareutropius longifilis (Steindachner, 1914)
