Biologia     Glossario (es. epibenthic)

Facultative air-breathing (Ref. 126274); Primarily a brackish water fish that enters and lives in fresh water. In freshwater, adults occur mainly in larger water bodies (rivers and streams) with mud or clay substrates, and rarely found in smaller streams. Form schools of 10 to 25 individuals. Diurnal. Oviparous, distinct pairing possibly like other members of the same family (Ref. 205).

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=0.01023 (0.00815 - 0.01284), b=3.02 (2.96 - 3.08), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this species (Ref. 93245).
Trophic level (Ref. 69278):  4.0   ±0.50 se; based on food items.
Generation time: 1.5 ( na - na) years. Estimated as median ln(3)/K based on 1 growth studies.
Resilienza (Ref. 120179):  Medio, tempo minimo di raddoppiamento della popolazione 1.4 - 4.4 anni (Assuming Fec < 10,000).
Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153):  Low vulnerability (23 of 100).
Price category (Ref. 80766):   Unknown.
Nutrients (Ref. 124155):  Calcium = 171 [90, 391] mg/100g; Iron = 2.13 [1.13, 3.85] mg/100g; Protein = 17 [16, 18] %; Omega3 = 0.279 [0.139, 0.534] g/100g; Selenium = 48.2 [22.1, 113.9] μg/100g; VitaminA = 19.5 [5.7, 61.3] μg/100g; Zinc = 1.22 [0.74, 1.97] mg/100g (wet weight); based on nutrient studies.
