Etymology: kheeli: Named for Theodore W. Kheel in recognition of his enduring support for nature conservation and sustainable development around the globe (Ref. 57537).
Environment: milieu / climate zone / depth range / distribution range
Ecologia
; Água doce demersal; intervalo de profundidade ? - 2 m (Ref. 57537). Tropical

Maturity: Lm ? range ? - ? cm
Max length : 9.6 cm SL macho/indeterminado; (Ref. 57537)
Espinhos dorsais (total): 0; Raios dorsais moles (total): 9-10; Espinhos anais 0; Raios anais moles: 15 - 16; Vértebras: 42 - 43. Diagnosis: Distinguished from its congeners by an elevated number of pored lateral-line scales (65-68 vs. 60 or fewer); a lower anal-fin ray count (iii,12-13 vs. iii,15); a large terminal black spot at the caudal-fin base (vs. absence); presence of vertical barring on the flanks (vs. none); unique configuration of lateral barring, consisting of a dominant row of 15-17 short ovoid bars or spots passing a little above mid-body level, and a secondary row of somewhat less distinct ovoid spots or bars positioned over the lateral line; the 2 rows separate in adults, merged in juveniles (Ref. 57537).
Captured in deeper stretches of open water in relatively fast-flowing waters; in complex habitats of alternating riffles and pools, on rocky substrate (Ref. 57537).

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=0.00589 (0.00282 - 0.01229), b=3.02 (2.84 - 3.20), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this (Sub)family-body shape (Ref.
93245).
Nível Trófico (Ref.
69278): 3.3 ±0.4 se; based on size and trophs of closest relatives
Resiliência (Ref.
120179): Elevada, tempo mínimo de duplicação da população menor que 15 meses (Preliminary K or Fecundity.).
Fishing Vulnerability (Ref.
59153): Low vulnerability (10 of 100).
