Maturity: L_m ? range ? - ? cm
Max length : 204 cm TL mâle / non sexé; (Ref. 244)

Biology poorly known. But its minute eyes suggest that it may be adapted to turbid water with poor visibility, as in large tropical rivers and muddy estuaries. Newborn specimens are from 56 to 61 cm long. Viviparous (Ref. 50449). Its notoriety may have stemmed from its widespread confusion with C. leucas. But this species is potentially dangerous as well because of its size and large teeth, though its reputation as a man-eater is still unproven.

Estimates based on models

Preferred temperature (Ref. 123201): 24.6 - 28.1, mean 26.3 °C (based on 141 cells).

Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804): PD₅₀ = 0.5312 [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].

Bayesian length-weight: a=0.00468 (0.00218 - 0.01003), b=3.09 (2.92 - 3.26), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this (Sub)family-body shape (Ref. 93245).

Niveau trophique (Ref. 69278): 4.2 ±0.7 se; based on size and trophs of closest relatives

Résilience (Ref. 120179): Très faible, temps minimum de doublement de population supérieur à 14 ans (Assuming Fec<10).

Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153): Very high vulnerability (90 of 100).

Catégorie de prix (Ref. 80766): Medium.
