Tamanho / Peso / Idade
Maturidade: Lm ? range ? - ? cm
Max length : 13.2 cm SL macho/indeterminado; (Ref. 12251)
Espinhos dorsais (total) : 15; Raios dorsais (total) : 10 - 12; Espinhos anais: 3; Raios anais : 7 - 8. Diagnosis: lower pharyngeal jaw slender and gracile, with a reduced dentigerous plate; gill filaments of first arch long (ca. 20% HL); 10-12 gill rakers on first arch; anterior rakers markedly reduced in size (Ref. 81260).
Prefers a herbivorous diet, especially phytoplankton which might be taken from the water column and not from the substrate; primarily found near the lake shore, forming stable pairs and preferring to spawn on sunken wood or on stones (Ref. 52307). Substrate brooder (Ref. 81260). Both parents guard their brood (Ref. 52307).
