Found in the warmer reaches of rivers, particularly in sandy stretches of larger perennial and intermittent rivers (Ref. 1440, 52193). It feeds on detritus, algae, and small invertebrates (Ref. 52193). An active fish, leaps at barriers when migrating upstream in swollen rivers to breed in summer (Ref. 7248, 52193).

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=0.01000 (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).

Nivel trófico (Ref. 69278): 2.4 ±0.18 se; based on food items.

Resiliencia (Ref. 120179): Medio, población duplicada en un tiempo mínimo de 1.4-4.4 años (Preliminary K or Fecundity.).

Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153): Low to moderate vulnerability (34 of 100).
