Etymology: Characidium: Diminutive of Charax, -akos = a fish without identification (Ref. 45335); nupelia: Named for Nupélia (Núcleo de Pesquisas em Limnologia, Ictiologia e Aqüicultura), in recognition of its role in the survey and ecological research of the fish fauna from the Manso Reservoir region, which led to the discovery of this species..

Description synthétique Morphologie | Morphométrie

Rayons mous dorsaux (Total): 12-13; Rayons mous anaux: 9; Vertèbres: 33. Belongs to a group of species, including Characidium xavante, distinguished uniquely by having high number (12-18) of dark, vertical bars on the body, each bar having the width of a scale. Differs from Characidium xavante by a greater number of scales around the caudal peduncle (12 vs. 10), narrower interorbital region (interorbital distance 20.5-28.6 vs. 30.1-38.0% HL) and deeper caudal peduncle (caudal peduncle depth 46.2-57.8% vs. 35.4-44.9% HL). Additional conspicuous external characters which are not unique but are useful in the identification of this species include absence of adipose fin, incomplete lateral line, and presence a dark blotch on the caudal peduncle (Ref. 75787).

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 (0.00434 - 0.02412), b=3.05 (2.86 - 3.24), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this Genus-body shape (Ref. 93245).

Niveau trophique (Ref. 69278): 3.2 ±0.3 se; based on size and trophs of closest relatives

Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153): Low vulnerability (10 of 100).
