Short description Bestämningsnycklar | Morfologi | Morfometri

Diagnosis: Zaireichthys mandevillei differs from all other members of the genus Zaireichthys, except Z. zonatus, in the small eye, which is 12 times in the head length, compared with the range of 4.1-7.4 in the other species; it differs from Z. zonatus in the shape of the caudal fin, which is forked in Z. mandevillei and rounded in Z. zonatus (Ref. 86935).

It is confined to sandy reaches of the mainstream of the Congo River and its largest tributaries (Ref. 51287).

Estimates based on models

Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804): PD₅₀ = 0.5000 [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].

Bayesian length-weight: a=0.00389 (0.00180 - 0.00842), b=3.12 (2.94 - 3.30), in cm Total Length, based on all LWR estimates for this body shape (Ref. 93245).

Trofisk nivå (Ref. 69278): 3.0 ±0.4 se; based on size and trophs of closest relatives

Resiliens (Ref. 120179): Hög, lägsta populationsfördubblingstid mindre än 15 månader (Preliminary K or Fecundity.).

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