Found in shallow rocky reaches, riffles and rapids of permanent rivers; has a wider altitudinal range than most species, common where it occurs (Ref. 52193). It feeds on aquatic insects such as mayfly nymphs and caddis fly and blackfly larvae (Ref. 52193). Breeds during summer, laying eggs between rocks and in gravel (Ref. 52193). Oviparous (Ref. 205). Is a useful indicator species in river conservation studies (Ref. 7248).

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=0.01000 (0.00244 - 0.04107), b=3.04 (2.81 - 3.27), in cm total length, based on all LWR estimates for this body shape (Ref. 93245).

Trofisk nivå (Ref. 69278): 3.2 ±0.40 se; based on food items.

Resiliens (Ref. 120179): Hög, lägsta populationsfördubblingstid mindre än 15 månader (Preliminary K or Fecundity.).

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