Short description Claves de identificación | Morfología | Morfometría

Radios blandos dorsales (total) : 8. Distinguished by the following unique characters: quincunx-like pattern of spots; dorsal fin with 8 branched rays; anal fin with 5 branched rays; lateral line scales 75-88 ; and inner pharyngeal teeth molariform, with formula 2,3,3-3,3,2 (Ref. 96566).

Biología     Glosario (por ej. epibenthic)

Prefers lentic, high oxygen habitats but may occur in reservoirs. Feeds on mollusks based on teeth but also takes algae and detritus. Reported to spawn in shallow gravel beds. Threatened by exploitation for food, habitat loss, eutrophication, dam construction and water abstraction (Ref. 96566).

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=0.01047 (0.00506 - 0.02166), b=3.00 (2.83 - 3.17), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this Genus-body shape (Ref. 93245).
Nivel trófico (Ref. 69278):  2.8   ±0.3 se; based on size and trophs of closest relatives
Resiliencia (Ref. 120179):  Medio, población duplicada en un tiempo mínimo de 1.4-4.4 años (Preliminary K or Fecundity.).
Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153):  Moderate vulnerability (43 of 100).
