Short description Claves de identificación | Morfología | Morfometría

Espinas dorsales (total) : 0; Radios blandos dorsales (total) : 53 - 58; Radios blandos anales: 51 - 52; Vértebra: 56. Characterized by a relatively short vomerine tooth plates (3.6-3.9 % HL) and by its relatively long adipose fin (12.7-15.9 % SL) - the longest in Clarias and therefore, is a specific character for C. lamottei. Head is oval-shaped in dorsal outline. Frontal fontanelle long and narrow (`knife-shaped'); occipital fontanelle long and oval-shaped. Suprabranchial organ consists of well developed arborescent structures.
Body shape (shape guide): elongated; Cross section: oval.

Biología     Glosario (por ej. epibenthic)

Facultative air-breathing (Ref. 126274); The type locality is situated in a savannah area, in a swamp which completely dries up every year (Ref. 248).

Estimates based on models

Phylogenetic diversity index (Referencia 82804):  PD50 = 0.5000   [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].
Bayesian length-weight: a=0.00794 (0.00357 - 0.01766), b=2.96 (2.78 - 3.14), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this Genus-body shape (Ref. 93245).
Nivel trófico (Referencia 69278):  3.3   ±0.5 se; based on size and trophs of closest relatives
Resiliencia (Referencia 120179):  Alto, población duplicada en un tiempo mínimo inferior a 15 meses (Preliminary K or Fecundity.).
Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153):  Low vulnerability (10 of 100). 🛈
