Short description
Morphology | Morphometrics
Dorsal
soft rays
(total): 11;
Anal
soft rays: 7 - 8. Similar to Sinocyclocheilus donglanensis and Sinocyclocheilus altishoulderus, but distinguished from these two species by having lateral line scales larger than that of body scales (vs. lateral scales equal body scales), 12~14 gill-rakers (vs. 10~12 and 0~12 and 4~5), 3 rows of pharyngeal teeth, 2.3.4/4.3.2 are different with 2.3.5/5.3.2 of Sinocyclocheilus altishoulderus (Ref. 82586).
Inhabits subterranean river (Ref. 82586).

Estimates based on models
Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref.
82804): PD
50 = 0.5000 [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].
Bayesian length-weight: a=0.00603 (0.00254 - 0.01427), b=3.13 (2.92 - 3.34), in cm Total Length, based on LWR estimates for this (Sub)family-body shape (Ref.
93245).
Trophic level (Ref.
69278): 2.9 ±0.3 se; based on size and trophs of closest relatives
Resilience (Ref.
120179): High, minimum population doubling time less than 15 months (Preliminary K or Fecundity.).
Fishing Vulnerability (Ref.
59153): Low vulnerability (10 of 100).
