Short description Morphology | Morphometrics

Dorsal spines (total): 0; Dorsal soft rays (total): 12; Anal spines: 0; Anal soft rays: 8. Diagnosis: Luciobarbus lanigarensis is distinguished from other Luciobarbus species from the African Mediterranean Sea basin by a combination of characters, none of them unique (Ref. 121680). It is distinguished from L. guercifensis by having thin barbels vs. thick, the rostral-barbel origin placed clearly behind the tip of the snout, vs. rostral-barbel origin at the extreme anterior of the snout, and from L. mascarensis, L. yahyaouii and L. leptopogon, by having a wider interorbital distance, 38-47% of head length vs. 36-40% in L. mascarensis, 33-40% in L. yahyaouii, 36-39% in L. leptopogon, and a longer pectoral-fin, 21-24% of standard length vs. 16-21% in L. mascarensis, 18-21% in L. yahyaouii; it is further distinguished from L. chelifensis, L. leptopogon and L. mascarensis by having 43-45 + 1-3 lateral line scales, vs. 41-43 + 1-2 in L. chelifensis and L. leptopogon, usually 41 + 1-2 in L. mascarensis (Ref. 121680). It is distinguished from L. callensis, L. chelifensis and L. rifensis by having the last unbranched dorsal-fin ray serrated along 2/3 of its length, vs. last unbranched dorsal-fin ray serrated along almost its entire length, and a longer anal fin, 19-23% of standard length vs. 17-19% in L. callensis and L. chelifensis, 16-19% in L. rifensis; it is also distinguished from L. leptopogon and L. setivimensis by having a greater pre-dorsal distance, 53-59% of standard length vs. 49-52% in L. leptopogon, 47-52% in L. setivimensis (Ref. 121680).

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=0.01047 (0.00506 - 0.02166), b=3.00 (2.83 - 3.17), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this Genus-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).
