Short description Morphology | Morphometrics

Distinguished from other species of the genus by its color pattern consisting of large roundish black blotches scattered over a light brown or yellowish ground pigmentation and presence of inconspicuous brown small spots distributed among the large dark spots. Differs further from Synbranchus marmoratus by a higher number of vertebrae and from S. madeira by a shorter post-anal length (Ref. 56782).

Biology     Glossary (e.g. epibenthic)

Facultative air-breathing (Ref. 126274); The male guards and builds nest or burrow (Ref. 205).

Estimates based on models

Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804):  PD50 = 0.6250   [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].
Bayesian length-weight: a=0.00076 (0.00042 - 0.00136), b=3.11 (2.94 - 3.28), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this species & (Sub)family-body (Ref. 93245).
Trophic level (Ref. 69278):  3.2   ±0.3 se; based on size and trophs of closest relatives
Resilience (Ref. 120179):  Medium, minimum population doubling time 1.4 - 4.4 years (Preliminary K or Fecundity.).
Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153):  Low to moderate vulnerability (28 of 100).
