Length at first maturity / Size / Weight / Age
Maturity: Lm ?, range 19 - ? cm

Inhabits river, lakes and swamps. Mature adults undertake spawning migration to incoming streams and breeding takes place amidst gravel and sandy beds (Ref. 40974). Spawning period is extremely protracted, from May until the beginning of August. Large specimens spawn earlier than the small ones. Diet consists of animals and plants (Ref. 1441).

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=0.00977 (0.00654 - 0.01460), b=2.94 (2.82 - 3.06), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this species & Genus-body shape (Ref. 93245).
Trophic level (Ref. 69278): 2.0 ±0.00 se; based on food items.
Generation time: 0.7 ( na - na) years. Estimated as median ln(3)/K based on 1 growth studies.
Resilience (Ref. 120179): High, minimum population doubling time less than 15 months (Preliminary K or Fecundity.).
Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153): Moderate vulnerability (42 of 100).
Nutrients (Ref. 124155): Calcium = 342 [179, 708] mg/100g; Iron = 10.2 [3.1, 19.8] mg/100g; Protein = 16.6 [15.4, 18.0] %; Omega3 = 0.292 [0.101, 0.855] g/100g; Selenium = 180 [39, 736] μg/100g; VitaminA = 12.4 [3.0, 50.6] μg/100g; Zinc = 4.81 [2.66, 7.07] mg/100g (wet weight); based on nutrient studies.
