Description synthétique Clés d'identification | Morphologie | Morphométrie

Rayons mous dorsaux (Total) : 12 - 14; Rayons mous anaux: 215 - 260. This species can be distinguished from all congeners in the 'Gymnotus carapo group clade' by the following set of characters: unique set of characters of uncertain polarity, including the number of prominent dark bands along the body, dark bands along body 3-4 times wider than pale interbands, with almost straight margins (never broken anteriorly into irregular dark spots), and bands almost uniform in color; number of scales above lateral line; number of lateral-line perforated scales to first ventral ramus; number of total pored lateral-line scales; head length; snout length; body depth; number of anal-fin rays; number of pectoral-fin rays; number of precaudal vertebrae; number of teeth on anterior row of premaxilla; and number of teeth along outer row of dentary (Ref. 128926).

Bayesian length-weight: a=0.00437 (0.00209 - 0.00911), b=2.98 (2.79 - 3.17), in cm Total Length, based on LWR estimates for this (Sub)family-body shape (Ref. 93245).
Niveau trophique (Ref. 69278):  3.3   ±0.4 se; based on size and trophs of closest relatives
Résilience (Ref. 120179):  Haut, temps minimum de doublement de population inférieur à 15 mois (Preliminary K or Fecundity.).
Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153):  Low vulnerability (10 of 100).
