Краткое описание
определительные ключи | морфология | морфометрия
колючие лучи спинного плавника (общее число) : 17 - 18; членистые (мягкие) лучи спинного плавника (общее число) : 8 - 9; колючие лучи анального плавника: 3; членистые (мягкие) лучи анального плавника: 7 - 8. Diagnosis: The presence of bicuspid teeth in the outer rows on both the upper and lower jaws and a moderately sloped vomer block with a swollen rostral tip place this species in Maylandia (Ref. 119465). Male and female M. usisyae are distinguished by an elongate body, body depth 25.9-30.6% of standard length, from all other species in Maylandia, body depth 28.8-40.8% of standard length, except M. tarakiki, body depth 25.8-32.9% of standard length, and M. flavicauda, body depth 23.6-28.5% of standard length (Ref. 119465). It differs from M. tarakiki by a smaller eye, vertical eye diameter 23.1-28.1% of head length vs. 30.2-36.5% in M. tarakiki; and a shorter lower jaw length, lower jaw length 29.9-33.4% of head length vs. 34.8-38.9% on M. tarakiki (Ref. 119465). Based on the colour pattern, male M. usisyae possess a yellow dorsal fin with a black submarginal band, yellow pelvic fins and yellow anal fin with a black leading edge; male M. flavicauda possess black pelvic and anal fins, and a black dorsal fin with yellow/orange spots distally; the ground colouration of male M. flavicauda is blue with 2 light/purple interorbital bars vs. yellow with 2 white/light blue interorbital bars in male M. usisyae; females of M. usisyae cannot reliably be distinguished by colour from those of M. flavicauda; Maylandia flavicauda also possess a deeper preorbital bone, preorbital depth 18.0-26.9% of head length, and a longer snout, snout length 34.3-47.3% of head length, which are 17.6-21.2% and 32.0-37.6% in M. usisyae respectively (Ref. 119465).

50 = 0.5000 [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].
Bayesian length-weight: a=0.01000 (0.00244 - 0.04107), b=3.04 (2.81 - 3.27), in cm Total Length, based on all LWR estimates for this body shape (Ref.

устойчивость к внешним воздействиям (Ref.
120179): высокий, минимальное время удвоения популяции до 15 месяцев (Preliminary K or Fecundity.).
Fishing Vulnerability (Ref.
