North and Central America: Over much of North America from Quebec to Northwest Territories and British Columbia in Canada and south to Alabama, Texas in USA, and Mexico. Widely introduced, including in Colorado River drainage in Arizona and New Mexico, USA. Not present on Atlantic and Gulf slopes between Potomac River in Virginia and Trinity River in Texas. Several countries report adverse ecological impact after introduction.
北美洲: 遍及從魁北克到加拿大西北地區的北美洲的許多地方而且南至阿拉巴馬州,德克薩斯與美國新墨西哥州。 也在墨西哥。 引入後的一些國家報告不利的生態衝擊。 亞洲: 伊朗.(參考文獻 39702)

简单描述 型态特徵 | 形态测量图

背棘 (总数): 0; 背的软条 (总数): 8; 臀棘 0; 臀鳍软条: 7. The only species of genus introduced to Europe which differs from other cyprinid species in Europe by the following characters: prominent pad of spongy tissue on nape in males; dorsal fin origin about above pelvic fin origin; anal fin with 7½ branched rays; second simple dorsal ray spinous, about 50% length of the third one; lateral line incomplete, usually not reaching dorsal origin; weak midlateral stripe; 41-54 + 2 scales in midlateral row; and mouth terminal (Ref. 59043).

生物学特性     字汇 (例如 epibenthic)

Inhabits muddy pools of headwaters, creeks, small rivers, and ponds (Ref. 5723, 86798). Also found in lakes (Ref. 10294). Can tolerate conditions (e.g., turbid, hot, poorly oxygenated, intermittent streams) unsuitable for most fishes (Ref. 5723, 86798). Feeds on detritus and algae (Ref. 10294). Spawns in still-water habitats along shores (Ref. 59043). Introductions consequently caused the spread of the enteric red-mouth disease throughout northern Europe which infected wild and cultured trouts and eels (Ref. 1739). Maintained a relatively high metabolic rate and level of activity under hypoxic conditions (Ref. 77050). Individuals that survived the hypoxic conditions during winter had rapid growth rates after ice-off (Ref. 77048).

栖息于河川源头,小溪与小河的泥泞水池。 也发现于池塘。 容忍不适合的环境。 (例如, 浑浊的,热的,和溶氧量低又间歇的溪流) 引入在传染了野生与养殖的鳟鱼与鳗鱼的欧洲北部各处结果导致传播肠内的红嘴病。 (参考文献 1739)

"Males defend territories and eggs, and clean plants, stone or other materials by rubbing them with the spongy nape pad and dorsal fin, which contain mucus-secreting cells and taste buds. The mucus may have fungicidal properties" (Ref. 59043).北美洲: 遍及從魁北克到加拿大西北地區的北美洲的許多地方而且南至阿拉巴馬州,德克薩斯與美國新墨西哥州。 也在墨西哥。 引入後的一些國家報告不利的生態衝擊。 亞洲: 伊朗.(參考文獻 39702)
