Kurzbeschreibung Morphologie | Morphometrie

Rückenflossenstacheln (insgesamt): 0; Rückenflossenweichstrahlen (insgesamt): 10-11; Afterflossenstacheln 0; Afterflossenweichstrahlen: 14 - 16.

Inhabits clear, flowing water in rapids or instream pools of rivers (Ref. 26673); frequenting pools below rapids or water flows over sand or gravel (Ref. 52193). It feeds primarily on benthic macroinvertebrates, mainly chironomid and simuliid larvae, and adult insects taken from the surface (Ref. 26673)..Gonadosomatic index indicates that the species is a partial spawner which breeds over an extended period during the spring and summer months (Ref. 26673), spawning several times during the season (Ref. 52193)..

Estimates based on models

Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804): PD₅₀ = 0.5002 [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).

Trophic level (Ref. 69278): 3.3 ±0.4 se; based on size and trophs of closest relatives

Widerstandsfähigkeit (Ref. 120179): mittel, Verdopplung der Population dauert 1,4 - 4,4 Jahre. (tmax=6).

Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153): Low vulnerability (10 of 100).
