Short description Identification keys | Morphology | Morphometrics

Differs from other species in the genus by many dorsal-fin rays, 21-25 versus 1220 and anal fin origin under dorsal-fin ray number 13-16 compared to 4-11. Dorsal fin origin anterior to origin of pelvic fin; posterior to pelvic fin origin in other species (Ref. 26761).

Biology     Glossary (e.g. epibenthic)

In rivers. Females bear live young (Ref. 58777).

Estimates based on models

Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804):  PD50 = 0.5020   [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. 93245).
Trophic level (Ref. 69278):  3.1   ±0.4 se; based on size and trophs of closest relatives
Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153):  Low vulnerability (10 of 100).
