Short description
Claves de identificación | Morfología | Morfometría
Radios blandos anales: 11 - 14. Can be distinguished from other species of Cottus in Europe by the combination of the following characters: lateral line incomplete; reaching to anal-fin base, usually with 17-25 pores; at vertical of 10th ray of second dorsal fin, lateral line clearly above horizontal midline, distance from dorsal midline to lateral line 1.5-2.1 times in distance from ventral midline to lateral line; no distinct transverse bands on pelvic fin; prickling on body variable, in juveniles usually extending to caudal peduncle (Ref. 55856).
Inhabits medium-sized rivers to small streams, and lake shores (Ref. 59043).
