Identification keys | Morphology | Morphometrics
Dorsal spines (total): 3; Dorsal soft rays (total): 8; Anal spines: 3; Anal soft rays: 5. Air bladder very large, the anterior chamber of air bladder oval-shaped, the posterior one outsized (3.5-4.5 times length of anterior one); ventral fin extending over anus; snout long (snout length 43.6%-48.8% of HL); maxillary barbels reaching midpoint of eyes (its length 71.1%-125% of eye diameter); horny tubercles concentrated on snout tip; center lobe of lower lip narrow (width 50%-61.5% of mouth width) (Ref. 50421).
Found in the lower layers of fast-flowing deep streams (Ref. 50421).

Estimates based on models
Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref.
82804): PD
50 = 0.5312 [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).
Resilience (Ref.
120179): High, minimum population doubling time less than 15 months (Preliminary K or Fecundity.).
Fishing Vulnerability (Ref.
59153): Low vulnerability (10 of 100).
