Краткое описание
определительные ключи | морфология | морфометрия
колючие лучи спинного плавника (общее число) : 0; членистые (мягкие) лучи спинного плавника (общее число) : 13 - 19; колючие лучи анального плавника: 0; членистые (мягкие) лучи анального плавника: 18 - 24; позвонки: 29 - 31. Having series of small bluish white spots, often coalesced to form continuous or fragmented line, on subdistal area of caudal fin and dark brown to black stripe on border of anal fin, adjacent and parallel to perpendicular extensions of subdistal golden transverse lines. Dorsal head profile slightly convex to nearly straight in male, gently concave to approximately straight in female (Ref. 42934).
Body shape (shape guide): fusiform / normal.
Occurs in small freshwater temporary pools in floodplains of streams and lagoons. These pools are shallow with compact, soft reddish brown muddy bottom and dry twice a year, during winter, usually from July to August, and during summer, usually from February to March. During dry season, all fish die and eggs undergo in diapause within the substrate. Eclosion happens at the onset of wet season, usually March-April and September-October (Ref. 42934). This species was introduced in California (Ref. 4357). Bottom spawner, 4 months incubation. Is easy to maintain in the aquarium (Ref. 27139).
Life cycle and mating behavior
половая зрелость | размножение | нерест | икра | Fecundity | личинки
Males are territorial and very aggressive. Males display an elaborate courtship behavior beginning with waving lateral movement in front of female, with the unpaired fins completely opened. In an oblique position, the male touches the bottom surface with the anterior portion of its head, with vibrating body. The female placed her body side to side with the male. Then both couple dives into the substrates where spawning takes place (Ref. 42934).
