Kurzbeschreibung Bestimmungsschlüssel | Morphologie | Morphometrie

Rückenflossenstacheln (insgesamt) : 13 - 15; Rückenflossenweichstrahlen (insgesamt) : 14 - 16; Afterflossenstacheln: 3; Afterflossenweichstrahlen: 11 - 13; Wirbelzahl: 36 - 38. Characterized by 3-4 distinct vertical bands on the body, which are absent or very indistinct in the other Cyprichromis species. Color: males with a yellowish body, bluish or slightly darkly tinted dorsally, 3-4 broad vertical bands on dorsal half of body beneath dorsal fin base, anteriormost one less distinct than the others, several yellow lines along longitudinal scale rows on ventral half of body, dorsal fin bluish, anal fin yellowish with blue tint, pelvic fin dark gray with yellow tip, caudal fin dark gray with bluish posterior and dorsal and ventral margins; females indistinct vertical bands on body, dull fin coloration and no yellow tip on pelvic fin (Ref. 46826).

Found 1-5 m above rocky bottoms; forms schools consisting of females and sub-adult males (often joining other schools of related species); mature males keeping a territory above a large rock or boulder in areas 15-25 m depth; mouthbrooder (Ref. 46826).

Estimates based on models

Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804): PD₅₀ = 0.5312 [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].

Bayesian length-weight: a=0.01514 (0.00700 - 0.03275), b=2.97 (2.80 - 3.14), in cm Total Length, based on LWR estimates for this (Sub)family-body shape (Ref. 93245).

Trophic level (Ref. 69278): 3.5 ±0.5 se; based on size and trophs of closest relatives

Widerstandsfähigkeit (Ref. 120179): hoch, Verdopplung der Population dauert weniger als 15 Monate. (Preliminary K or Fecundity.).

Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153): Low vulnerability (10 of 100).
