Size / Peso / Age

Maturity: L_m ? range ? - ? cm
Max length : 20.3 cm SL maschio/sesso non determinato; (Ref. 36377)

Inhabits lower river to middle river valleys as well as lake. Prefers moderate flowing streams and large rivers with strong currents which are clear, clean and high in oxygen content. Can be found over rocks, sand, silt, or mud. Occurs in most all the habitats available within its small territorial boundaries.

Estimates based on models

Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804): PD₅₀ = 1.0000 [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].

Bayesian length-weight: a=0.02239 (0.01262 - 0.03971), b=3.08 (2.92 - 3.24), in cm Total Length, based on LWR estimates for this species & (Sub)family-body (Ref. 93245).

Trophic level (Ref. 69278): 3.2 ±0.4 se; based on size and trophs of closest relatives

Resilienza (Ref. 120179): Alto, tempo minimo di raddoppiamento della popolazione meno di 15 mesi (Preliminary K or Fecundity.).

Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153): Low vulnerability (15 of 100).
