Short description Morfologi | Morfometri

Mjukstrålar i ryggfenan (totalt): 11; Mjukstrålar i analfenan: 21 - 27. Can be easily diagnosed from all other species of the genus , except Moenkhausia oligolepis, Moenkhausia sanctaefilomenae, Moenkhausia pyrophthalma, and Moenkhausia diktyota, by having a reticulated body pigmentation pattern and a conspicuous dark blotch on the caudal peduncle extending to the base of caudal-fin rays preceded by a lighter area. Differs from Moenkhausia oligolepis by the having incomplete pored lateral line (vs. complete) and 23-26 lateral line scales (vs. 28-31); from Moenkhausia sanctaefilomenae by having 5 transverse series of scales above the lateral line (vs. 4 ) and 4 transverse series of scales below the lateral line (vs. 3); from Moenkhausia pyrophthalma by having body depth 38.3-45.2% in SL (vs. 31.2-33.0%), lateral line scales 23-26 (vs. 27-31), and an inconspicuous dark inverse triangular humeral blotch located on second and third lateral line scales (vs. a conspicuous black inverse drop-shaped humeral blotch located on second to fourth lateral line scales); from Moenkhausia diktyota by its caudal peduncle with very widely scattered dark pigment resulting in conspicuous lighter area preceding a conspicuous caudal-fin blotch which extends between the dorsal to ventral margins of the proximal one-third of caudal-fin base (vs. caudal peduncle with elongate black stripe extending from the vertical through the last anal-fin ray to the tips of middle caudal fin rays) (Ref. 81199).

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=0.01202 (0.00517 - 0.02796), b=3.08 (2.91 - 3.25), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this Genus-body shape (Ref. 93245).
Trofisk nivå (Ref. 69278):  3.2   ±0.5 se; based on size and trophs of closest relatives
Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153):  Low vulnerability (10 of 100).
