Short description Chiavi di identificazione | Morfologia | Morfometria

Raggi dorsali molli (totale) : 8 - 9; Raggi anali molli: 5; Vertebre: 28 - 29. Can be distinguished from its congeners by having the following unique combination of characters: a plain brown body, head plain brown; presence of broad and flat secondary rostrum with folds; absence of postoral pouch; presence of shallow subopercular groove; gill slit vertical; sublacrymal groove present; a truncate snout when viewed dorsally; abdomen without scales; lateral line with 60-64 scales; pelvic fin just touching anal fin origin, adpressed dorsal fin not overlapping level of anal fin origin (Ref. 57871).

Recorded from fast flowing rocky streams (Ref. 84801).

Estimates based on models

Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804): PD₅₀ = 0.5000 [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].

Bayesian length-weight: a=0.00617 (0.00268 - 0.01421), b=3.11 (2.91 - 3.31), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this (Sub)family-body shape (Ref. 93245).

Trophic level (Ref. 69278): 2.5 ±0.1 se; based on size and trophs of closest relatives

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