Short description Bestämningsnycklar | Morfologi | Morfometri

Taggstrålar i ryggfenan (totalt) : 2 - 3; Mjukstrålar i ryggfenan (totalt) : 9 - 10; Taggstrålar i analfenan: 2; Mjukstrålar i analfenan: 7 - 8. Diagnosis: skin scaleless, but head and body covered with small spines except on snout and caudal region; teeth form beak-like structure consisting in each jaw of two pieces fused on midline and covered by layer of enamel; nostrils consisting of two fleshy lobes placed in front of folded collar surrounding the opening; two pairs of non-perforated nasal tentacles; dorsal and anal fins short and placed far back on body; pectoral fins well developed; no pelvic fins; caudal fin rounded, its length comprised 3 times in SL; longitudinal stripes along sides of body in adults; black-rimmed red ocelli (eyespots) present in juveniles (Ref. 57417).

Biologi     Ordlista (t.ex. epibenthic)

Found in large rivers (Ref. 2829), open water, weed beds and vegetated fringes; feeds on mollusks (Ref. 28714). Ventral pocket communicates gill chamber with oesophagus, allowing fish to inflate its body like a ball (Ref. 57417).

Estimates based on models

Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804):  PD50 = 0.5020   [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].
Bayesian length-weight: a=0.02630 (0.01443 - 0.04794), b=2.92 (2.76 - 3.08), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this species & (Sub)family-body (Ref. 93245).
Trofisk nivå (Ref. 69278):  3.6   ±0.50 se; based on food items.
Generation time: 4.5 ( na - na) years. Estimated as median ln(3)/K based on 1 growth studies.
Resiliens (Ref. 120179):  Mellan, lägsta populationsfördubblingstid 1,4-4,4 år (Preliminary K or Fecundity.).
Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153):  Moderate vulnerability (38 of 100).
Nutrients (Ref. 124155):  Calcium = 111 [46, 247] mg/100g; Iron = 1.1 [0.5, 2.5] mg/100g; Protein = 17.9 [15.8, 20.2] %; Omega3 = 0.211 [0.092, 0.466] g/100g; Selenium = 61.4 [30.7, 137.9] μg/100g; VitaminA = 11.3 [3.9, 32.6] μg/100g; Zinc = 1.06 [0.73, 1.59] mg/100g (wet weight);
