Etymology: Pogonopoma: Greek, pogon = beard + Greek, poma, -atos = cover, operculum (Ref. 45335).
Eponymy: There were two people called Wertheimer on the Thayer Expedition to Brazil (1865–1866), but Steindachner did not clarify which of them he was naming the fish after. [...] (Ref. 128868), visit book page.

Maturity: L_m ? range ? - ? cm
Max length : 22.3 cm SL maschio/sesso non determinato; (Ref. 36817)

Facultative air-breathing in the genus (Ref. 126274); Currently known from three coastal river drainages in southeastern Brazil. Usually found in stretches of river with mid to strong water current and rocky or sandy bottom; although some specimens were collected from a lentic habitat (Ref. 43112).

Estimates based on models

Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804): PD₅₀ = 0.6250 [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].

Bayesian length-weight: a=0.00631 (0.00257 - 0.01549), b=3.11 (2.90 - 3.32), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this (Sub)family-body shape (Ref. 93245).

Resilienza (Ref. 120179): Medio, tempo minimo di raddoppiamento della popolazione 1.4 - 4.4 anni (Preliminary K or Fecundity.).

Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153): Low vulnerability (17 of 100).
