Inhabit rocky pools and nearby riffles of headwaters and creeks (Ref. 5723); also found in streams (Ref. 10294). Often found in very shallow water less than 4 m deep (Ref. 5723). Juveniles feed on midge larvae and microcrustaceans; adults on midge larvae, other immature aquatic insects (mayflies, caddisflies, stoneflies), isopods and amphipods (Ref. 10294). Eggs are found clustered on underside of stone and guarded by males (Ref. 7043).

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=0.00537 (0.00235 - 0.01227), b=3.14 (2.94 - 3.34), in cm Total Length, based on LWR estimates for this (Sub)family-body shape (Ref. 93245).

Trophic level (Ref. 69278): 3.3 ±0.5 se; based on size and trophs of closest relatives

Resilienza (Ref. 120179): Alto, tempo minimo di raddoppiamento della popolazione meno di 15 mesi (tmax=2).

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