Short description Morfologia | Morfometria

Spine dorsali (totale): 0; Raggi dorsali molli (totale): 6; Raggi anali molli: 22 - 25. Differs from all other species of the genus Gladioglanis by the following characters: absence of dorsal-fin spine and spinelet absent; first dorsal-fin ray (homologous to spine) flexible, unbranched, followed by five branched dorsal-fin rays; pectoral-fin spine 5.8-6.1% of SL; pectoral spine with 5 dentations on anterior side and 4 on posterior; anal fin with 22-25 rays; round profile of the head in dorsal view; first pterygiophore of dorsal fin in contact with neural spine of eighth vertebra; both caudal-fin lobes with 13 rays; and total vertebrae 60 (Ref. 79081).

Found in flooded forest on the border of the lake, in a shallow (up to 0.5 m) marginal area on a deep mat of leaf litter as substrate. Also collected on leaf litter along the shore of the lake (Ref. 79081).

Estimates based on models

Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804): PD₅₀ = 0.6250 [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].

Bayesian length-weight: a=0.00776 (0.00362 - 0.01664), b=2.98 (2.80 - 3.16), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this (Sub)family-body shape (Ref. 93245).

Trophic level (Ref. 69278): 3.1 ±0.3 se; based on size and trophs of closest relatives

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