> Cypriniformes (Carps) > Cyprinidae (Minnows or carps) > Labeoninae
Etymology: Garra: Name based on a vernacular Indian name (Hamilton, 1822:343, Ref. 1813); a fish living in mud (Ref. 128817); regressus: The species name regressus, from the Latin 'regress', meaning to go back, is chosen in reference to the regressed rostral cap characteristic of the species (Ref. 58532).

Environment: milieu / climate zone / depth range / distribution range Ecologia

; acqua dolce benthopelagico, usually 2 - ? m (Ref. 58532). Tropical

Short description Morfologia | Morfometria

Spine dorsali (totale): 0; Raggi dorsali molli (totale): 10; Spine anali 0; Raggi anali molli: 8. Diagnosis: This species is unique among African Garra in possession of a small, acutely pointed head, narrow mouth, regressed rostral cap, and a fully exposed upper jaw (Ref. 58532).

Specimens were collected by trawl in papyrus beds close to shore, 25-30m, in water about 2.5m in depth (Ref. 58532).

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=0.00759 (0.00331 - 0.01740), b=3.05 (2.88 - 3.22), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this Genus-body shape (Ref. 93245).

Resilienza (Ref. 120179): Alto, tempo minimo di raddoppiamento della popolazione meno di 15 mesi (Preliminary K or Fecundity.).

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