Short description Morfología | Morfometría

Radios blandos dorsales (total): 9; Radios blandos anales: 22 - 24; Vértebra: 31. Astyanax ocotal is distinguished from other congeners in the region by the following characters: head length, 29-33% SL (vs. 22- 28% in A. angustifrons and A. finitimus, to 30% in A. aeneus); anal-fin base length, 26% SL or less (vs. 26% or more in A. aeneus and A. finitimus); lower-limb gill rakers in first arch, 15-16 (vs. 14 or fewer in A. angustifrons and A. finitimus); urohyal, ventral apex closer to caudal end (vs. about equidistant between rostral and caudal ends in A. finitimus); epibranchial III, distal segment straight (vs. curved in A. finitimus); preopercle with divergent canals at angle (vs. canals parallel in A. angustifrons); coracoid with 4-5 interdigitations in suture to cleithrum (vs. 2-3 in A. angustifrons) (Ref. 118583).

Estimates based on models

Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804):  PD50 = 0.5000   [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].
Bayesian length-weight: a=0.01148 (0.00526 - 0.02507), b=3.08 (2.91 - 3.25), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this Genus-body shape (Ref. 93245).
Nivel trófico (Ref. 69278):  2.8   ±0.4 se; based on size and trophs of closest relatives
Resiliencia (Ref. 120179):  Alto, población duplicada en un tiempo mínimo inferior a 15 meses (Preliminary K or Fecundity.).
Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153):  Low vulnerability (10 of 100).
