Comments: In the last century, this species frequented nearly 1,700 km of the whole Rhône basin (Rhône, Ain, Isère, Gard, Durance, Saône and its tributaries the Ognon, Ouche…). It disappeared from Côte d'Or around 1940 and gradually almost completely from its area of distribution with the deterioration of its habitat. Today, it occurs only in 17% of the area that it occupied in the last century. Today, it is still present in Doubs and the Loue where it is threatened by the construction of a waterway. It is among the species which require a strict protection (Annex IV of the European Directive on the conservation of the natural habitats as well as flora and fauna) (Ref. 30578). Also Ref. 3881. Status of threat: Endangered (Ref. 74334).

Europe: Rhône drainage, except Lake Geneva basin (France, Switzerland). Originaly widespread, but following habitat alterations, distribution is now much fragmented and restricted. Main subsisting populations in the middle Doubs (France, Switzerland) and Durance and Ardeche (southern France).

Short description Morfologia | Morfometria

Spine dorsali (totale): 8 - 13; Raggi dorsali molli (totale): 10-14; Spine anali 1-3; Raggi anali molli: 8 - 12; Vertebre: 43 - 45. The presence of 57-65 + 3-6 scales along lateral line distinguishes uniquely this species from its congeners. Can be further separated from other species by the combination of the following characters: first dorsal fin with 8-9 spines; second dorsal fin with 1-2 simple and 9-12½ branched rays; scaleless cheeks (Ref. 59043). Caudal fin with 17 soft rays (Ref. 40476).

A short-lived species reported to live in fast-flowing rivers with a gravel substrate (Ref. 30578). Occurs in main course of rivers and large streams and in riffles. Found on stone bottom (Ref. 59043). Lurks on the bottom during the day and comes out for crepuscular feeding (Ref. 11941). Feeds on aquatic invertebrates. Larvae feed on plankton under surface, then at about 2.5 cm SL, they move to benthic habitats. Attains first sexual maturity at 2-4 years of age. Spawns in deeper parts of riffles. Deposits on gravel strongly adhesive eggs, 2.2 mm in diameter, which hatch in about 14 days at 13° C (Ref. 59043). Threatened due to habitat destruction and pollution (Ref. 26100).
