Short description Claves de identificación | Morfología | Morfometría

Espinas dorsales (total) : 1; Radios blandos dorsales (total) : 6; Espinas anales: 4; Radios blandos anales: 10 - 11; Vértebra: 47 - 49. The species is distinguished from its congeners by the following set of characters: with a dark anteriorly oblique blotch in the humeral region, its anterior limit slightly ahead of vertical through the spinelet, and its posterior limit at vertical through the base of second branched dorsal-fin ray; 47-49 total vertebrae; 8-11 retrorse triangular, broad-based and strongly inclined dentations confined to basal three-fourths of pectoral-fin spine posterior margin; presence of an unpigmented region dorsally and ventrally adjacent to the dark midlateral stripe; maxillary barbels reaching at least the caudal fin insertion; the longest ray of dorsal-fin 18.7-22.5% SL; subequal caudal-fin lobes; dark midlateral stripe narrow, from pseudotympanum to the caudal-fin insertion, dorsal region of body without dark stripes; dorsal fin with hyaline stripe near base, followed distally by a dark stripe, then another hyaline stripe and distalmost two-fifths dark (Ref. 118150).

Collected along a sandy beach in the middle stretch of the river. Water parameters during the collection event were: 26.1-26.7ºC; pH 4.25-4.46; conductivity 76-77 mS. (Ref. 118150).

Estimates based on models

Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804): PD₅₀ = No PD50 data [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].

Bayesian length-weight: a=0.00832 (0.00383 - 0.01808), b=2.97 (2.80 - 3.14), in cm Total Length, based on LWR estimates for this Genus-body shape (Ref. 93245).

Nivel trófico (Ref. 69278): 4.0 ±0.6 se; based on size and trophs of closest relatives

Resiliencia (Ref. 120179): Muy bajo, población duplicada en un tiempo mínimo superior a 14 años (Preliminary K or Fecundity.).

Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153): High vulnerability (58 of 100).
