Short description Morphology | Morphometrics

Diagnosis: Distinguished from other members of the genus by its color pattern which includes a lateral band and abdominal stripes that become darker and have much lighter interspaces on the caudal peduncle and a caudal spot that is divided into elongated blotches continuing the lateral band and upper two abdominal stripes, respectively (Ref. 56722).

Biology     Glossary (e.g. epibenthic)

The type locality is a large swamp with muddy bottom; very shallow at the time of the sampling, where some places are not more than 5 cm deep (Ref. 56722).

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=0.01000 (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 (Ref. 69278):  3.2   ±0.4 se; based on size and trophs of closest relatives
Resilience (Ref. 120179):  Medium, minimum population doubling time 1.4 - 4.4 years (Assuming Fec<1000).
Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153):  Low vulnerability (10 of 100).
