Short description Morfologia | Morfometria

Spine dorsali (totale): 78 - 18; Raggi dorsali molli (totale): 8-9; Spine anali 3; Raggi anali molli: 7 - 8. Diagnosis: A moderately gracile species, with rounded head and well-developed sexual dimorphism and dichromatism (Ref. 97630). It differs from all congeners with the exception of Pelvicachromis taeniatus by a black margin with a white to pale bluish submargin in the lower half of the male caudal fin, vs. no margin/submargin in the other species, and it differs from all congeners in a white margin and a black submargin in the dorsal half of the male caudal fin, vs. not present (Ref. 97630). It differs in female colouration from P. taeniatus and P. kribensis in showing a dusky blackish margin and absence of horizontal dark bars in the caudal fin (Ref. 97630). It differs from P. taeniatus and P. kribensis in a caudal peduncle usually longer than deep, vs. shorter than deep to as long as deep; it differs from P. humilis, P. rubrolabiatus and P. signatus in the absence of seven-eight dark, vertical bars on body, and in three tubular infraorbital bones vs. two; it differs from P. silviae in a lesser body depth, 28.7-35.1% of standard length vs. 37.4-43.0%, longer caudal peduncle, the caudal peduncle length 93.9-124.6% of caudal peduncle depth vs. 73.2-85.3%, and more spines in dorsal fin, 17-18 vs. 14-16; it differs from P. subocellatus in males by absence of a lappet-like elongation of some rays of caudal fin; it differs from P. roloffi in greater caudal peduncle length, 12.4-18.2% of standard length vs. 9.4-12.2%, and higher number of pored scales of lateral line, 27-29 vs. 24-26; it differs from P. sacrimontis in shorter interorbital distance, 16.3-27.4% of head length vs. 29.4-45.3%; it differs from P. pulcher in rows of dots in the central field of the male caudal fin vs. absence (Ref. 97630).

Estimates based on models

Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804):  PD50 = 0.5039   [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
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).
