Short description Chiavi di identificazione | Morfologia | Morfometria

Diagnosis: moderately large sized and moderately slender, macrognathic species; dorsal head profile smoothly curved; snout rather acute; teeth strongly curved; distinct mid-lateral band, broader in males than in females, and thinner and interrupted dorsal lateral band present; ripening male with snout and cheek brownish grey, gill cover and the rostral part of flank golden brown, and ventral side, belly, caudo-ventral part of flank and caudal peduncle blackish (Ref. 74923).

Piscivore, feeding on small haplochromine cichlids (Ref. 74923).

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=0.01445 (0.00674 - 0.03099), b=2.99 (2.82 - 3.16), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this (Sub)family-body shape (Ref. 93245).

Trophic level (Ref. 69278): 3.4 ±0.5 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. 59153): Low vulnerability (10 of 100).
