Short description Morphology | Morphometrics

Dorsal soft rays (total): 7; Anal soft rays: 5. Diagnosis: distinguished from all its congeners by the presence of 2 (vs. 1) types of projections on the ventroposterior margin of the maxillary barbel: the proximal 3rd with lobulate projections and distal 2/3 with laciniate (vs. only entire margin or only crenulate, laciniate, lobulate, fimbriate, or villiform projections); further diagnosed by the combination of the following characters: lower lip with an entire margin and a distinct median notch, an emarginate caudal fin, a dark brown streak on the outer margin of each caudal-fin lobe, distance between posterior end of pectoral-fin base and pelvic-fin origin 11.5 % SL, caudal peduncle depth 5.3 % SL, dorsal-to-adipose distance 21.1 % SL, interorbital width 25 % HL, anal-fin base 2.9 % SL, upper and lower first principal caudal-fin rays 12.6 and 15.0 % SL, and a rounded maxillary barbel tip (Ref. 103418).

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=0.00589 (0.00260 - 0.01333), b=3.08 (2.88 - 3.28), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this (Sub)family-body shape (Ref. 93245).
Trophic level (Ref. 69278):  3.1   ±0.4 se; based on size and trophs of closest relatives
Resilience (Ref. 120179):  Medium, minimum population doubling time 1.4 - 4.4 years (Preliminary K or Fecundity.).
Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153):  Low vulnerability (10 of 100).
