Size / Gewicht / Alter

Maturity: L_m ? range ? - ? cm
Max length : 12.4 cm TL Männchen/unbestimmt; (Ref. 3202)

Oviparous (Ref. 205). Inhabits small streams, main rivers and flooded pools (Ref. 30558). Extremely abundant in ox-bow lakes and river cut-offs in the Lower Tana River (Ref. 39831). Breeding occurs shortly after floods, when ripe fish enter small streams leading to floodwater pools, where they breed; this migration is rather sudden, adult fish migrate in large schools upstream over a period of less than a week (3 to 4 days); one or two additional smaller migrations may occur after the main peak; the stimulus triggering this migration is probably closely connected with rainfall (Ref. 96595).

Oviparous (Ref. 205). Distinct pairing during breeding (Ref. 205).

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=0.01175 (0.00468 - 0.02950), b=2.97 (2.78 - 3.16), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this Genus-body shape (Ref. 93245).

Trophic level (Ref. 69278): 2.9 ±0.4 se; based on size and trophs of closest relatives

Widerstandsfähigkeit (Ref. 120179): hoch, Verdopplung der Population dauert weniger als 15 Monate. (Preliminary K or Fecundity.).

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