Short description पहचान कुंजी | आकृति विज्ञान | मौरफोमैटरिक्स

पृष्ठीय रीढ़ (सम्पूर्ण) : 17 - 19; पृष्ठीय सौफट रेज़ (सम्पूर्ण) : 8 - 10; गुदा कांटा: 3; ऐनल सौफट रेज़: 9 - 10; जानवरों की रीड़ का जोड़: 31 - 32.

Found in rather slow running water, in a section bordered with dense vegetation and in a small shallow stony brook with rather swift water; seems to be more common in fast flowing water between the stones; detritus eater; female mouthbrooder (Ref. 28906).

Life cycle and mating behavior Maturities | पुनरुत्पत्ति | Spawnings | Egg(s) | Fecundities | लार्वा

Probably a female mouthbrooder as several preserved specimens with eggs or fry in the mouth appeared to be females.

Estimates based on models

Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804): PD₅₀ = 0.5001 [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].

Bayesian length-weight: a=0.00389 (0.00180 - 0.00842), b=3.12 (2.94 - 3.30), in cm total length, based on all LWR estimates for this body shape (Ref. 93245).

Trophic level (Ref. 69278): 2.0 ±0.00 se; based on food items.

लौटाव (Ref. 120179): ऊंचा, न्यूनतम जनसंख्या दुगनी समय अवलागत 15 महीने। (Preliminary K or Fecundity.).

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