Short description Morfologia | Morfometria

Differs from other species of the genus by the following combination of characters: 17-21 branched anal fin rays, predorsal length (52.5-55.4% SL), preventral length (47.8-51.0% SL), preanal length (63.0-68.8% SL), caudal peduncle length (12.3-14.3% SL) and eye diameter (33.1-37.0% HL). Further differs by having seven to ten dentary teeth decreasing in size gradually, inner premaxillary teeth wider distally; one vertically elongated black humeral spot, separated from a second posterior one by 3 or 4 scales; narrow lateral band becoming wider below middle of dorsal fin base (Ref. 55781).

Occurs in rapids and small falls with clear flowing water, pools and some areas with slow current (Ref. 55781). The depth of the streams ranges from 0.40 to 1.3 m and the bottom is composed of sand and mostly stones (Ref. 55781).

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=0.01000 (0.00244 - 0.04107), b=3.04 (2.81 - 3.27), in cm total length, based on all LWR estimates for this body shape (Ref. 93245).

Trophic level (Ref. 69278): 2.6 ±0.3 se; based on size and trophs of closest relatives

Resilienza (Ref. 120179): Alto, tempo minimo di raddoppiamento della popolazione meno di 15 mesi (Preliminary K or Fecundity.).

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