Size / Weight / Age

Maturity: Lm ?  range ? - ? cm
Max length : 6.8 cm SL male/unsexed; (Ref. 95217)

Short description Morphology | Morphometrics

Dorsal spines (total): 0; Dorsal soft rays (total): 9; Anal soft rays: 7. This species can be diagnosed from all other known congeners by the combination of the following characters: 12-16 oblique black bands, narrower than interspaces at caudal peduncle; anus located closer to caudal fin base than to tip of snout; origin of dorsal fin equidistant between snout tip and base of caudal fin; lateral line incomplete, terminating before pelvic fins; caudal fin truncated with irregular black blotches; upper angle of caudal fin base with a distinct blotch; and barbels much longer than eye diameter (Ref. 95217).

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=0.00708 (0.00336 - 0.01491), b=3.01 (2.84 - 3.18), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this (Sub)family-body shape (Ref. 93245).
Trophic level (Ref. 69278):  2.8   ±0.3 se; based on size and trophs of closest relatives
Resilience (Ref. 120179):  Medium, minimum population doubling time 1.4 - 4.4 years (Preliminary K or Fecundity.).
Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153):  Low vulnerability (10 of 100).
