Short description
Claves de identificación | Morfología | Morfometría
Espinas dorsales (total) : 1; Radios blandos dorsales (total) : 7; Espinas anales: 1; Radios blandos anales: 3 - 4. This species differs from its congeners inhabiting the Río de La Plata and coastal
basins of southern Brazil, except A. agostinhoi, A. multispinis, A. mullerae, A. taunayi and A. formoso, by possessing a maxillary barbel shorter and not free from its lower lip (vs. longer and free from lower lip); from the first 4 species, by the width of mandibulary teeth row 13.4-15.5% of HL (vs. 15.8-19.3%, 15.5-19.4%, 16.5-21.0% and 15.8-23.1%, respectively) and 32.9-37.9% of interorbital width (vs. 38.4-53.6%, 40.7-53.8%, 39.3-58.0% and 39.4-51.4%, respectively); from A. formoso by orbital diameter 11.9-15.3% of HL (vs. 8.3-8.7%), caudal peduncle depth 9.0-10.9% of SL (vs. 7.8-8.7%) and number of dentary teeth 40-68 (vs. 110) (Ref. 83296).
Body shape (shape guide): elongated.
Facultative or obligate air-breathing (Ref. 126274)

Estimates based on models
Phylogenetic diversity index (Referencia
82804): PD
50 = 0.5000 [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].
Bayesian length-weight: a=0.01479 (0.00633 - 0.03455), b=2.99 (2.81 - 3.17), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this Genus-body shape (Ref.
93245).
Resiliencia (Referencia
120179): Alto, población duplicada en un tiempo mínimo inferior a 15 meses (Preliminary K or Fecundity.).
Fishing Vulnerability (Ref.
