Short description
Morfologia | Morfometria
Having a large vertically oriented, semicircular plate on pectoral rays 7-8 of male; origin of dorsal fin above or slightly in front of pelvic origin; dark <- shaped mark at caudal base, with a black spot at base of branched rays 3-5 (Ref. 43281).
Facultative air-breathing in the genus (Ref. 126274); Occurs in lowland wetlands (Ref. 57235). Usually inhabits swamps, river sides, shallow lakes and reservoirs among dense vegetation (Ref. 43281).

Estimates based on models
Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref.
82804): PD
50 = 0.5000 [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].
Bayesian length-weight: a=0.00525 (0.00241 - 0.01141), b=3.05 (2.87 - 3.23), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this (Sub)family-body shape (Ref.
93245).
Trophic level (Ref.
69278): 2.8 ±0.3 se; based on size and trophs of closest relatives
Resilienza (Ref.
120179): Alto, tempo minimo di raddoppiamento della popolazione meno di 15 mesi (Preliminary K or Fecundity.).
Fishing Vulnerability (Ref.
59153): Low vulnerability (10 of 100).
