Biology     Glossary (e.g. epibenthic)

Adults inhabit streams and rivers (Ref. 1479). Found over gravel and stony bottom of mountain streams (Ref. 51717). Observation reports this species in a variety of microhabitats in a headwater stream in the Ganges River basin, with stronger preference for pools. Spawning in a Himalayan population reported to occur from July to September, possibly triggered by high turbidity and stream velocities from seasonal rains. Food consists of macrophytes, algae, and diatoms (Ref. 127037).

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=0.00891 (0.00547 - 0.01451), b=3.06 (2.92 - 3.20), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this species & Genus-body shape (Ref. 93245).
Resilience (Ref. 120179):  High, minimum population doubling time less than 15 months (Preliminary K or Fecundity.).
Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153):  Low vulnerability (10 of 100).
Nutrients (Ref. 124155):  Calcium = 177 [75, 634] mg/100g; Iron = 1.88 [0.70, 4.41] mg/100g; Protein = 16 [14, 18] %; Omega3 = 0.197 [0.094, 0.414] g/100g; Selenium = 41.7 [19.8, 86.3] μg/100g; VitaminA = 59.1 [26.5, 132.2] μg/100g; Zinc = 1.31 [0.77, 3.44] mg/100g (wet weight); based on nutrient studies.
