Maturity: L_m ? range ? - ? cm
Max length : 12.0 cm TL hane/ej könsbestämd; (Ref. 130676)

In forest creeks and sandy river shores, often near fallen leaves or among plants. Young are all females; at about 8 months of age one female changes into a dominant male (Ref. 42575).

Life cycle and mating behavior Maturities | Reproduktion | Spawnings | Egg(s) | Fecundities | Larver

Attaches about 200 eggs to plants or stones; female tends the clutch. After a year the females turn into males. This corrects previous informations from Ref. 35887 and 13371.

Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804): PD₅₀ = 0.7500 [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].

Bayesian length-weight: a=0.01862 (0.00849 - 0.04084), b=3.01 (2.83 - 3.19), in cm Total Length, based on LWR estimates for this (Sub)family-body shape (Ref. 93245).

Trofisk nivå (Ref. 69278): 3.1 ±0.4 se; based on size and trophs of closest relatives

Resiliens (Ref. 120179): Hög, lägsta populationsfördubblingstid mindre än 15 månader (tm<1).

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