Etymology: Etheostoma: Greek, etheo = to strain + Greek, stoma = mouth; Rafinesque said "various mouths", but Jordan and Evermann suggest the name might have been intended as "Heterostoma (Ref. 45335); proeliare: From the Greek etheo=to strain, and stoma=mouth; proeliare Latin, meaning to battle (Ref. 79012).

Maturity: Lm ?  range ? - ? cm
Max length : 4.8 cm TL maschio/sesso non determinato; (Ref. 5723); common length : 3.4 cm TL maschio/sesso non determinato; (Ref. 12193); Età massima riportata: 2.00 anni (Ref. 12193)
Adults occur in standing or slow-flowing water, usually in vegetation over mud (Ref. 5723); found in streams, swamps and oxbow lakes (Ref. 10294). Feed on midge larvae and microcrustaceans, with isopods, amphipods, and mayfly nymphs important seasonally (Ref. 10294). Eggs are found attached to the substrate unguarded (Ref. 7043).

Estimates based on models
Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref.
82804): PD
50 = 0.5000 [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].
Bayesian length-weight: a=0.00537 (0.00235 - 0.01227), b=3.14 (2.94 - 3.34), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this (Sub)family-body shape (Ref.
93245).
Trophic level (Ref.
69278): 3.2 ±0.5 se; based on size and trophs of closest relatives
Resilienza (Ref.
120179): Alto, tempo minimo di raddoppiamento della popolazione meno di 15 mesi (tmax=2; Fec=26-116).
Fishing Vulnerability (Ref.
