Short description Chiavi di identificazione | Morfologia | Morfometria

Spine dorsali (totale) : 1; Raggi dorsali molli (totale) : 6; Spine anali: 2; Raggi anali molli: 9. Diagnosis: pectoral-fin tips reaching to pelvic-fin bases; pelvic-fin insertions located on a vertical line from last dorsal-fin ray: snout length less than 55% of head length; posterior nostrils large, separated from orbits by a bony crest; humeral process blunt; branchiostegal membrane broadly notched ventrally; width of occipital process comprised 3.2 times in its length (Ref. 57128).

Phractura species are often associated with the vegetation of flowing waters (Ref. 57128).

Estimates based on models

Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804): PD₅₀ = 0.5001 [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].

Bayesian length-weight: a=0.00389 (0.00180 - 0.00842), b=3.12 (2.94 - 3.30), 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

Resilienza (Ref. 120179): Medio, tempo minimo di raddoppiamento della popolazione 1.4 - 4.4 anni (Preliminary K or Fecundity.).

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