Favours cobble riffle areas in the lower gradient reaches of tributary streams, with juveniles preferring the stream edge and adults preferring pools with slightly slower current speeds (Ref. 94787). Inhabits pools and riffles of clear flowing rocky bottomed streams; feeds on detritus and small bottom-living insects; breeds in summer; males are territorial (Ref. 7248).

Estimates based on models
Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref.
82804): PD
50 = 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): 2.6 ±0.27 se; based on food items.
Resilienza (Ref.
120179): Alto, tempo minimo di raddoppiamento della popolazione meno di 15 mesi (Preliminary K or Fecundity.).
Fishing Vulnerability (Ref.
59153): Low vulnerability (10 of 100).
