Short description पहचान कुंजी | आकृति विज्ञान | मौरफोमैटरिक्स

पृष्ठीय रीढ़ (सम्पूर्ण) : 0; पृष्ठीय सौफट रेज़ (सम्पूर्ण) : 10; गुदा कांटा: 0; ऐनल सौफट रेज़: 15 - 18; जानवरों की रीड़ का जोड़: 33 - 34. Diagnosis: Brycinus epuluensis is distinguished from all species belonging to the macrolepidotus group by having a short snout, more than 3 times in head length vs. less than 3 times, and fewer premaxillary teeth, 6-7 vs. 8-11; it is distinguished from all species belonging to the longipinnis group by the absence of a fronto-parietal fontanelle in adults vs. fronto-parietal fontanelle always present, fewer lateral line scales, 18-22 vs. 25-36, and generally fewer anal-fin rays, iii,12-15 vs. iii,14-25; it is distinguished from aal species of the nurse group by having 6 or exceptionally 7 premaxillary teeth vs. 8-10, exceptionally 7 (Ref. 113515). The species is most similar to Brycinus imberi, from which it is mainly distinguished by fewer premaxillary teeth, 6-7 vs. 7-8, fewer lateral line scales, 18-22 vs. 21-31, and the presence of a black mid-lateral band (Ref. 113515).
Body shape (shape guide): fusiform / normal.

Estimates based on models

Phylogenetic diversity index (संदर्भ 82804):  PD50 = 0.5000   [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).
Trophic level (संदर्भ 69278):  3.2   ±0.4 se; based on size and trophs of closest relatives
लौटाव (संदर्भ 120179):  ऊंचा, न्यूनतम जनसंख्या दुगनी समय अवलागत 15 महीने। (Preliminary K or Fecundity.).
Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153):  Low vulnerability (10 of 100). 🛈
