Short description
Chiavi di identificazione | Morfologia | Morfometria
Spine dorsali (totale) : 2 - 3; Raggi dorsali molli (totale) : 4 - 5; Spine anali: 3; Raggi anali molli: 5. This species is distinguished from its congeners by the following set of characters: canaliculate scales on the lateral line 43-49 (mean = 45.9; Md = 46; n = 66) ; scales above the lateral line 6-7 (mean = 6.8; Md = 7; n = 66); scales below the lateral line
; 4-5 (mean = 4.4; Md = 4; n = 66); pharyngeal teeth 5/5; body depth low (SL/BD > 4.4; BD/BLD < 2.2); dentary with coronoid process high and narrow. Genetic distances from the other species of Achondrostoma inferred from the mitochondrial cytochrome b gene sequence were: about 7.7% with respect to A. salmantinum; about 6.1% with respect to A. occidentale; about 2.2% with respect to A. oligolepis; 2.7-2.8% with A. arcasii (here defined as the Ebro and Mijares, Turia and Palancia drainages); 2.4% with Central-Eastern Duero and 6.1% with Northwestern Duero. It has 3 autapomorphies, none of them transversions, in the cytochrome b gene (Ref. 128766).
This species is a typical inhabitant of rivers with clear water and from moderate to high water flow, in areas with granitic rocks in the riverbed (Ref. 128766).

Estimates based on models
Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref.
82804): PD
50 = No PD50 data [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].
Bayesian length-weight: a=0.00724 (0.00358 - 0.01465), b=3.14 (2.97 - 3.31), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this (Sub)family-body shape (Ref.
93245).
Trophic level (Ref.
69278): 2.9 ±0.4 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.
