Ecologia
; acqua dolce benthopelagico. Temperate; 36°N - 32°N
North America: upper Rio Grande (above El Paso, Texas), Texas and New Mexico and in the Pecos River, New Mexico, USA. Has disappeared over much of its former range, apparently due to reduced water levels in the Rio Grande system (Ref. 3881).

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.
