Short description Claves de identificación | Morfología | Morfometría

Body shape (shape guide): fusiform / normal.

Occurs in deep pools of large cold rivers and lakes (Ref. 5723). Most common in high mountainous areas where snowfields and glaciers are present (Ref. 5723). Rarely anadromous (Ref. 5723, Ref. 51243). Lacustrine form matures in lakes and spawns in tributaries, where young reside for one to three years (Ref. 10367).

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=0.00977 (0.00473 - 0.02021), b=3.04 (2.87 - 3.21), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this (Sub)family-body shape (Ref. 93245).

Nivel trófico (Referencia 69278): 3.7 ±0.57 se; based on food items.

Resiliencia (Referencia 120179): Muy bajo, población duplicada en un tiempo mínimo superior a 14 años (Preliminary K or Fecundity.).

Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153): High vulnerability (62 of 100). 🛈

Price category (Ref. 80766): Very high.
