Kurzbeschreibung Bestimmungsschlüssel | Morphologie | Morphometrie

Rückenflossenstacheln (insgesamt) : 1; Rückenflossenweichstrahlen (insgesamt) : 6; Afterflossenweichstrahlen: 12 - 15; Wirbelzahl: 38 - 41. Posterior edge of adipose fin rounded; length of adipose fin base 23.3-27.9% SL (versus 19.9-22.8 in A. variegatum); depth of caudal peduncle 13.2-15.9% SL; body depth at anus 11.2-14.2% SL; eyes small, dorsolaterally situated and subcutaneous, diameter 5.5-8.5% HL.

Inhabits rivers and streams with moderate to swift current and sandy or rocky bottoms. Individuals hiding under rocks or submerged logs during the day and coming out at night to feed. The fish is capable of inflicting a painful sting with its dorsal and pectoral spines, with much swelling and excruciating pain in the afflicted area for several hours (Ref. 37785).

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=0.00661 (0.00311 - 0.01404), b=3.01 (2.82 - 3.20), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this (Sub)family-body shape (Ref. 93245).

Trophic level (Ref. 69278): 3.2 ±0.4 se; based on size and trophs of closest relatives

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