Biology     Glossary (e.g. epibenthic)

A short-lived species which occurs in spring and associated wetlands and in lowland water courses with little current. Feeds on invertebrates and plants. Is threatened due to water abstraction and habitat destruction. Spawns in December to March (Ref. 26100).

Estimates based on models

Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804):  PD50 = 0.5078   [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].
Bayesian length-weight: a=0.01000 (0.00434 - 0.02305), b=3.02 (2.81 - 3.23), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this (Sub)family-body shape (Ref. 93245).
Trophic level (Ref. 69278):  2.8   ±0.29 se; based on food items.
Resilience (Ref. 120179):  High, minimum population doubling time less than 15 months (tm=1; tmax=3).
Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153):  Low vulnerability (10 of 100).
