Short description Morfologia | Morfometria

Raggi dorsali molli (totale): 10-11; Vertebre: 34 - 37. Distinguished from other congeners by the combination of the following characters: anal fin with 13-17 branched rays; lateral line scales 35-38; one humeral spot; dentary teeth abruptly decreasing in size after the fifth tooth; orbital diameter 22.6-29.1% of HL; interorbital width 30.6-35.7% of HL; snout length 25.3-29.7% of HL; predorsal scales 12-15; dorsal procurrent rays 10-12; maxillary teeth 1 or 2; and a conspicuous midlateral band from humeral region to caudal peduncle (Ref. 81203).

Feeds on insects and plants (Ref. 81203).

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=0.01148 (0.00526 - 0.02507), b=3.08 (2.91 - 3.25), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this Genus-body shape (Ref. 93245).

Trophic level (Ref. 69278): 2.9 ±0.4 se; based on size and trophs of closest relatives

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