Maturity: Lm ? range ? - ? cm
Max length : 17.0 cm TL পুরুষ/ লিঙ্গ অনিধর্ারিত ; (Ref. 5723); common length : 6.0 cm TL পুরুষ/ লিঙ্গ অনিধর্ারিত ; (Ref. 12193); সর্বোচ্চ উলি্ল্লখিত বয়স : 8 বৎসর (Ref. 27547)
পৃষ্ঠীয় কাঁটা (মোট ) : 8 - 10; পৃষ্ঠীয় নরম পাখনা দন্ড (মোট ) : 17 - 20; পায়ূ কাঁটা : 0; পায়ূর নরম পাখনা্তুন্ড: 12 - 15; কশেরুকা : 34 - 38. Distinguished by having only a single pore on the tip of the chin, no palatine teeth and no pronounced gap between 1st and 2nd dorsal fins (Ref. 27547). Dark brown to greenish or grayish on back and sides, with darker blotches; sides lighter, ventral areas white; usually two or three dark saddle-like blotches below soft part of dorsal fin; dark bars on dorsal, anal, pectoral and caudal fins; orange edge on spiny dorsal fin of spawning males (Ref. 27547).
Inhabits gravel and rubble riffles of medium to large rivers and rocky shores of lakes (Ref. 5723). Occasionally enters estuaries (Ref. 5723) and nearshore coastal water (Ref. 43939). Feeds mostly at night and mostly on aquatic insects and benthic invertebrates (Ref. 27547). Generally solitary but large aggregations have been noted (Ref. 27547). Makes regular seasonal migrations associated with spawning (Ref. 27547). Considered a forage fish for some salmonids (Ref. 1998).
Adults make regular seasonal migrations associated with spawning. They move downstream to estuaries or at least to lower reaches of rivers in the spring, mostly at night (Ref. 27547). Eggs are deposited on the undersurface of a rock, in adhesive masses (Ref. 1998). Over 7,000 eggs have been found in a single nest, suggesting that a male may spawn with several females (Ref. 1998, 27547). The male guards the nest until all eggs have hatched (Ref. 1998, 27547). A reverse, upstream migration of yearlings and adults occur in late summer to early winter, from August to December (Ref. 27547).
