Distal part of gonopodium blade ray 3 bluntly pointed; three quarters of the caudal fin with fine red stripes; claw of tip of gonopodium ray 5 greatly enlarged; height/length ratios of tip of blade 5.6-6.3; dark pigmentation of the midlateral band continuous with the dark dorsal pigmentation of the sword in male. Caudal fin in males ray 5-8 forming a long sword; pelvic fin in females reaching to anal-fin base, in males to middle of gonopodium, second ray extremely prolonged and split, middle region thickened (Ref. 42936).

Collected in an area where the water is gray and substratum consists predominantly of large black boulders, gravel and mud; aquatic vegetation mainly with reeds and Vallisneria (Ref. 42936).

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=0.01023 (0.00456 - 0.02295), b=3.13 (2.95 - 3.31), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this (Sub)family-body shape (Ref. 93245).

Trophic level (Ref. 69278): 3.1 ±0.4 se; based on size and trophs of closest relatives

Widerstandsfähigkeit (Ref. 120179): mittel, Verdopplung der Population dauert 1,4 - 4,4 Jahre. (Preliminary K or Fecundity.).

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