Comments: Widespread across northern and western Taiwan (including Ilan, Taipei, Taoyuan, Shinchu, Miaoli, Taichung, Chanhwa, Yunlin, Charyi, and Tainan Counties), except river basins south of the Tzengwen River. Artificially introduced in eastern Taiwan (Hualien and Taitung Counties) which has subsequently expanded its range in these basins and caused greatly substantial declines of the locally endemic cyprinid (Aphyocypris kikuchii) and gobiid fishes (two species of Rhinogobius spp.) (Ref. 81910). Also Ref. 5193, 33508, 47271.

Description synthétique Morphologie | Morphométrie

Rayons mous dorsaux (Total): 10-11; Rayons mous anaux: 11 - 13; Vertèbres: 39 - 41. More than 48 (modally 50-54) scales on lateral line; 20-23 predorsal scales; 4+36-37 (= 40-41) vertebral count; maxillary extending to or beyond vertical midline of orbit in female; and opercle and ventral side of head orange-red to pink-red in adult male (Ref. 95038).

Life cycle and mating behavior Maturité | Reproduction | Frai | Œufs | Fécondité | Larves

Mating behavior: Usually begins with fighting among males. Only one mates. Females rest on sandy ground and the male presses her belly. This makes the female tilt with her anus closer to the male. The male vibrates and releases the sperm. Subordinate males often join the spawning pair, perhaps to release their sperm.

Estimates based on models

Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804): PD₅₀ = 0.5002 [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].

Bayesian length-weight: a=0.00871 (0.00415 - 0.01826), b=3.09 (2.92 - 3.26), in cm Total Length, based on LWR estimates for this (Sub)family-body shape (Ref. 93245).

Niveau trophique (Ref. 69278): 3.2 ±0.4 se; based on size and trophs of closest relatives

Résilience (Ref. 120179): Milieu, temps minimum de doublement de population : 1,4 à 4,4 années (Fec = 712).

Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153): Low vulnerability (10 of 100).
