Lives among cobbles and rocks in swiftly flowing water (Ref. 52193). Active at night, feeding on benthic stream invertebrates such as mayfly and midge larvae (Ref. 52193). Breeds in summer (Ref. 52193). Iteroparous, with asynchronous ovarian development (Ref. 51405). Preyed upon by trout and is now scarce in certain streams (Ref. 7248, 52193).

Estimates based on models

Fylogenetische diversiteitsindex (Ref. 82804): PD₅₀ = 0.5000 [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].

Bayesian length-weight: a=0.00447 (0.00173 - 0.01152), b=3.09 (2.87 - 3.31), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this (Sub)family-body shape (Ref. 93245).

Trofisch niveau (Ref. 69278): 3.2 ±0.40 se; based on food items.

Weerstandsvermogen (Ref. 120179): Gemiddeld, minimale populatieverdubbelingstijd 1,4-4,4 jaar (Fec=600).

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

Prijsklasse (Ref. 80766): Unknown.
