簡短描述
型態特徵 | 形態測量圖
背棘 (總數): 0; 背的軟條 (總數): 55-75; 臀棘 0; 臀鰭軟條: 17 - 22. Diagnosis: snout long, about equal to the post-ocular length of the head (Ref. 28714), produced into a stout trunk whose thickness and angle to the face are variable (Ref. 34290). Dorsal fin very long, more than twice the anal fin length, with less than 75 rays, its origin above or slightly in front of the insertion of the pelvic fins (Ref. 4903, 28714).
頭部背面輪廓筆直地或略微彎曲了, 非常傾斜的。 吻伸展到了一個矮胖的軀幹 , 厚度與角到面是可變的。 唇厚的。 眼小的。 暗青銅色的背面, 腹部顏色較淡.(參考文獻 34290)
Solitary, nocturnal species (Ref. 28714). In Lake Victoria in both coastal and offshore waters (Ref. 4903). May spawn in the main lake, perhaps in deep water over rocks (Ref. 52083). In Lake Kyoga in open water rather than weedy areas (Ref. 55624). Bottom feeder; small fishes eat lithophilic insects; adults almost exclusively insectivorous; chironomids dominate in the diet (Ref. 12526). Oviparous (Ref. 205).
獨居性又夜行的種。 吃底棲的動物, 與寶刀魚仔魚作為一個主要的食物.(參考文獻 28714)

Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref.
82804): PD
50 = 0.5000 [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].
Bayesian length-weight: a=0.01202 (0.00696 - 0.02076), b=2.88 (2.73 - 3.03), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this species & Genus-body shape (Ref.
93245).
營養階層 (Ref.
69278): 3.2 ±0.40 se; based on food items.
Generation time: 7.8 ( na - na) years. Estimated as median ln(3)/K based on 1
growth studies.
回復力 (Ref.
120179): 中等的, 族群倍增時間最少 1.4 - 4.4年 (Fec = 1,393).
Fishing Vulnerability (Ref.
