Biologie     Fachlexikon (Englisch) (z.B. epibenthic)

Juveniles and adults are common in the mainstream river (Ref. 2829). Ventral pocket communicates gill chamber with oesophagus, allowing the fish to inflate its body like a ball (Ref. 57417). Liver and sexual organs are poisonous, but fishermen of the upper Cross carefully remove them and eat the flesh of this species (Ref. 81679). Some references to Tetraodon guttifer in the literature may represent misidentifications of T. pustulatus (Ref. 81679).

Estimates based on models

Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804):  PD50 = 0.5020   [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].
Bayesian length-weight: a=0.02570 (0.01193 - 0.05536), b=2.88 (2.71 - 3.05), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this (Sub)family-body shape (Ref. 93245).
Trophic level (Ref. 69278):  3.5   ±0.5 se; based on size and trophs of closest relatives
Widerstandsfähigkeit (Ref. 120179):  mittel, Verdopplung der Population dauert 1,4 - 4,4 Jahre. (Preliminary K or Fecundity.).
Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153):  Low to moderate vulnerability (30 of 100).
Preiskategorie (Ref. 80766):   Very high.
