Short description Chiavi di identificazione | Morfologia | Morfometria

Raggi dorsali molli (totale) : 8; Raggi anali molli: 6. Differs from all other known species of Hisonotus by the combination of a pair of rostral plates covering the tip of the snout; lateralis canal in almost every plate along length of body; lateral line uninterrupted by gaps, almost complete, with 22 perforated plates + 1 to 3 plates with no canal; a pectoral spine that is smooth and lacks odontodes along its posterior dorsal margin for a distance more than one-half of its width; and a scapular bridge that is completely exposed or with a very reduced median pair of arrector fossae (Ref. 53011).
Body shape (shape guide): elongated.

Biologia     Glossario (es. epibenthic)

Inhabits streams, with banks covered by vegetation partially submerged into the water (Ref. 53011).

Estimates based on models

Phylogenetic diversity index (Fonte Biblio. 82804):  PD50 = 0.5001   [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].
Bayesian length-weight: a=0.00851 (0.00374 - 0.01935), b=3.09 (2.90 - 3.28), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this (Sub)family-body shape (Ref. 93245).
Trophic level (Fonte Biblio. 69278):  2.4   ±0.1 se; based on size and trophs of closest relatives
Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153):  Low vulnerability (10 of 100). 🛈
