Korte beschrijving Determinatiesleutels | Morfologie | Morfometrie

Diagnosis: more slender and elongate than congenerics, with smaller head, eyes and mouth; ripe males with yellow-white dorsal "blaze" (Ref. 55949).

Found inshore and offshore, on reefs and over the shelf; abundant over the anoxic zone; female mouthbrooder (Ref. 55949). Zooplanktivorous; probably the most abundant species in Lake Malawi (Ref. 94786).

Males in breeding dress were found throughout the year; ripe adults and mouthbrooding females were recorded at depths of 50-125m; largest fry found in the mouth of females were 3cm TL, but a maximum of only 1-2 such large fry were found per female; juveniles of 40-50mm were found in many locations (Ref. 55949).

Estimates based on models

Fylogenetische diversiteitsindex (Ref. 82804): PD₅₀ = 0.5078 [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].

Bayesian length-weight: a=0.01514 (0.00700 - 0.03275), b=2.97 (2.80 - 3.14), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this (Sub)family-body shape (Ref. 93245).

Trofisch niveau (Ref. 69278): 3.1 ±0.46 se; based on food items.

Weerstandsvermogen (Ref. 120179): Hoog, minimale populatieverdubbelingstijd minder dan 15 maanden (Preliminary K or Fecundity.).

Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153): Low vulnerability (10 of 100).

Prijsklasse (Ref. 80766): Unknown.
