This species is engaged in large-scale seasonal migrations in the Rio Mogi Guassu (= Mogi-Guaçu), a tributary of the upper Rio Paraná. Forty to 50-day old juveniles were reported to be zooplanktivores and the larger individuals were detrivores (Ref. 11334).

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=0.01380 (0.00836 - 0.02278), b=3.12 (2.99 - 3.25), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this species & Genus-body shape (Ref.
93245).
Resiliencia (Ref.
120179): Alto, población duplicada en un tiempo mínimo inferior a 15 meses (Preliminary K or Fecundity.).
Fishing Vulnerability (Ref.
