Comments: Known from the Da Teh catchment of middle Dong Nai drainage in evergreen forest between 140−200 m. Likely to be confined to relatively small stretches of low-elevation forest streams of the middle Dong Nai drainage and thus particularly vulnerable to threats such as siltation and overfishing. Common human activities such as modification of stream morphology, logging, deforestation, agriculture and overfishing in the Da Teh catchment potentially pose threat to its population (Ref. 102622). Status of threat: data deficient following IUCN Red List categories (IUCN 2014, version 11) (Ref. 102622).

Short description Morphology | Morphometrics

Dorsal soft rays (total): 12; Anal soft rays: 8. Onychostoma dongnaiensis can be diagnosed from other species of Onychostoma by a combination of the following characters: mouth wide (width 1.4?1.6 times in HW); 14-15 predorsal scales; body depth high (3.1?3.4 times in SL); eye diameter small (4.2?4.9 times in HL), barbels absent in adults and juveniles; dorsal fin with a strong serrated last simple ray; and dorsal-fin length high (3.8?4.5 times in SL) (Ref. 102622).

Biology     Glossary (e.g. epibenthic)

Inhabits clear water but also lives in silty water. Occurs in swift currents over bedrock, large boulders and cobble substrates covered with periphyton. Feeds on algae and animals living in the algae. Shares habitat with Mystacoleucus obtusirostris, Osteochilus vittatus, Poropuntius deauratus, Channa gachua, Yasuhikotakia morleti, and Acantopsis dialuzona. The following water conditions were recorded: Dissolved oxygen 82.7−91.4%; conductivity 12−25 μS.cm-1 ; and flow velocity 0.12−0.77 m/s (Ref. 102622).

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=0.00955 (0.00435 - 0.02094), b=3.08 (2.88 - 3.28), in cm Total Length, based on LWR estimates for this (Sub)family-body shape (Ref. 93245).
Trophic level (Ref. 69278):  3.0   ±0.3 se; based on size and trophs of closest relatives
Resilience (Ref. 120179):  High, minimum population doubling time less than 15 months (Preliminary K or Fecundity.).
Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153):  Low vulnerability (10 of 100).
