Rayons mous dorsaux (Total) : 10 - 14; Rayons mous anaux: 3 - 5.

Facultative air-breathing (Ref. 126274); Typically from floodplain lakes, swamps and borrow pits, in poorly-oxygenated waters and must rely on air breathing for long periods of time. Has a specialized (enlarged) stomach which appear to function as accessory respiratory organs (Ref. 58517).

Estimates based on models

Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804): PD₅₀ = 0.5000 [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].

Bayesian length-weight: a=0.02570 (0.01537 - 0.04300), b=2.94 (2.80 - 3.08), in cm Total Length, based on LWR estimates for this species & Genus-body shape (Ref. 93245).

Résilience (Ref. 120179): Milieu, temps minimum de doublement de population : 1,4 à 4,4 années (Assuming Tmax >3).

Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153): Moderate to high vulnerability (48 of 100).

Catégorie de prix (Ref. 80766): Unknown.
