Size / Weight / Age

Maturity: Lm ?  range ? - ? cm
Max length : 25.0 cm SL male/unsexed; (Ref. 59043)

Short description Morphology | Morphometrics

Diagnosed from congeners by having the following characters: slightly pointed snout, rostral cap distinct in ventral view; lateral line with 45-56 + 3-4 scales; body depth 3.7-4.4 times in SL; caudal peduncle depth 1.5-1.9 times in its length; 24-33 gill rakers; pharyngeal teeth 7-6 or 6-6 (Ref. 59043).

Biology     Glossary (e.g. epibenthic)

Occurs in fast-flowing stretches but can survive in still water. Moves to upper stretches to spawn. Preys on benthic diatoms. Spawns on stone and gravel bottom (Ref. 59043).

Estimates based on models

Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804):  PD50 = 0.5625   [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].
Bayesian length-weight: a=0.00794 (0.00675 - 0.00934), b=3.08 (3.03 - 3.13), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this species (Ref. 93245).
Trophic level (Ref. 69278):  2.9   ±0.1 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 (21 of 100).
