Max length : 2.4 cm SL male/unsexed; (Ref. 13460)

Short description Morphology | Morphometrics

Dorsal spines (total): 4 - 5; Dorsal soft rays (total): 1-7; Anal spines: 1-2; Anal soft rays: 9 - 8. Adults are transparent or yellowish in color (Ref. 13460). A few black specks on snout and chin present in some specimen, others have specks scattered over back of head and a row along the base of anal fin (Ref. 439).

Biology     Glossary (e.g. epibenthic)

Probably live on or near the bottom in deeper parts of the lake (Ref. 439). Often seen in large schools during the rainy season along the shore (Ref. 439). Females are larger than males (Ref. 439). Cooked with vinegar, fried in cakes, or pickled and stewed (Ref. 439). Also prepared as fish sauce or steamed wrapped in banana leaves (Ref. 13460).

Life cycle and mating behavior Maturity | Reproduction | Spawning | Eggs | Fecundity | Larvae

Spawning occurs in freshwater afterwhich eggs and larvae are washed down by the river current into the sea (Ref. 110258).

Estimates based on models

Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804):  PD50 = 0.5010   [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].
Bayesian length-weight: a=0.00977 (0.00442 - 0.02163), b=3.05 (2.86 - 3.24), 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
Resilience (Ref. 120179):  High, minimum population doubling time less than 15 months (Preliminary K or Fecundity.).
Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153):  Low vulnerability (10 of 100).
