Biologia     Glossario (es. epibenthic)

Usually inhabits rubble and gravel-bottomed pools and riffles of headwaters, creeks and small rivers, but can shift to other habitats depending on the environmental conditions and composition of fish communities. Where Cottus rhotheus and Cottus aleuticus do not occur, this species occupies riffles; at localities where all occur together, it shifts to pools (ref. 86798). Has been observed in slow moving and still waters with muddy substrates, but identification is uncertain (K. McAllister & M. Young, pers. comm. 07/04/20).

Estimates based on models

Phylogenetic diversity index (Fonte Biblio. 82804):  PD50 = 0.5000   [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].
Bayesian length-weight: a=0.00589 (0.00281 - 0.01234), b=3.15 (2.97 - 3.33), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this (Sub)family-body shape (Ref. 93245).
Trophic level (Fonte Biblio. 69278):  3.3   ±0.4 se; based on size and trophs of closest relatives
Resilienza (Fonte Biblio. 120179):  Medio, tempo minimo di raddoppiamento della popolazione 1.4 - 4.4 anni (Fec=432).
Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153):  Low vulnerability (10 of 100). 🛈
