Dorsale stekels (totaal): 3; Dorsale zachte stralen (totaal): 7-8; Anale stekels 3; Anale zachte stralen: 5 - 6. Barbels extremely short; anterior barbel sometimes absent or minute when present; posterior barbels up to less than half eye diameter; mouth small and terminal. Males have conical tubercles on the snout.
Occurs in shallow, well-vegetated streams, floodplains and marshes. Feeds on small aquatic insects and algae. Breeds in summer, laying eggs amongst vegetation (Ref. 7248). Undertakes seasonal movements which might be correlated with spawning (Ref. 13337).

Estimates based on models
Fylogenetische diversiteitsindex (Ref.

50 = 0.5000 [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].
Bayesian length-weight: a=0.00562 (0.00253 - 0.01250), b=3.09 (2.89 - 3.29), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this (Sub)family-body shape (Ref.
93245).
Trofisch niveau (Ref.
69278): 2.6 ±0.28 se; based on food items.
Weerstandsvermogen (Ref.
120179): Hoog, minimale populatieverdubbelingstijd minder dan 15 maanden (Preliminary K or Fecundity.).
Fishing Vulnerability (Ref.
