Max length : 50.5 cm FL hane/ej könsbestämd; (Ref. 35835)
Taggstrålar i ryggfenan (totalt): 0; Mjukstrålar i ryggfenan (totalt): 11-12; Taggstrålar i analfenan 0; Mjukstrålar i analfenan: 8. Anterior barbels very thick and dark, length less than 5.5 times in head length, less than 2 times in gape height, longer than eye diameter; oral gape inferior; dorsal head profile irregular, convex caudally and with a 'bump' caused by premaxillaries.
Over muddy, sandy and rocky substrates all over the lake, preferably in water deeper than 6 m. Feeds mainly on insect larvae, small mollusks, and detritus.
