Short description Identification keys | Morphology | Morphometrics

Diagnosed from its congeners by the possession of the following characters: 45-49 + 2-3 scales on lateral line; anal fin usually with 9½ branched rays; eye diameter 3.4-3.5 times in HL, 1.1-1.3 times in interorbital distance; snout pointed, not projecting beyond tip of upper lip; conspicuous black midlateral stripe and conspicuous black line along lateral line in preserved individuals (Ref. 59043).

Biology     Glossary (e.g. epibenthic)

Occurs in a wide range of habitats from small mountain streams to lake shores. Reported to feed on plankton and bottom fauna (Ref. 59043).

Estimates based on models

Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804):  PD50 = 0.5000   [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].
Bayesian length-weight: a=0.00832 (0.00383 - 0.01808), b=3.10 (2.93 - 3.27), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this (Sub)family-body shape (Ref. 93245).
Trophic level (Ref. 69278):  3.3   ±0.4 se; based on size and trophs of closest relatives
Resilience (Ref. 120179):  Medium, minimum population doubling time 1.4 - 4.4 years (Preliminary K or Fecundity.).
Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153):  Low vulnerability (10 of 100).
