Short description
Morfologia | Morfometria
Raggi dorsali molli (totale): 10; Raggi anali molli: 7. Differs from all its congeners by the following characters: oral sucking disc small with posterior margin not reaching vertical of anterior margin of eye; rostral pair equal to eye diameter; maxillary pair of barbels not reaching posterior margin of oral sucking disc; mid-ventral region anterior to pelvic-fin insertion scaleless; eye visible in ventral view; prepelvic length 57.1-58.1% SL; pectoral-pelvic length 40.8-41.0% SL; head length 17.5-18.4% SL; snout length 44.9-47.2% HL (Ref. 75176).
Prefers to inhabit fast-flowing water of limpid streams with cobble substrate. Reported by local people to feed mainly on algae and occasionally on aquatic plants and larvae of aquatic insects (Ref. 75176).

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=0.01000 (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).
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).
