Africa: endemic to Lake Tanganyika (Ref. 5694); in the Lukuga River (Lake Tanganyika outflow) known up to the Kisimba-Kilia rapids (Ref. 93587).

Size / Gewicht / Alter

Maturity: L_m ? range ? - ? cm
Max length : 12.0 cm TL Männchen/unbestimmt; (Ref. 5694)

This is one of the smallest and hardiest species in Lake Tanganyika along with Pseudosimochromis marginatum (Ref. 6770). Known from sandy and rocky areas (Ref. 7343). It is very intolerant of any other rockgrazer, less so of the other species, and very territorial and aggressive toward its conspecifics (Ref. 6770). It cleans off a patch of ground between rubble to breed (Ref. 6770). Females brood their young in the mouth (Ref. 86760).

Estimates based on models

Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804): PD₅₀ = 0.5625 [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): 2.0 ±0.00 se; based on food items.

Widerstandsfähigkeit (Ref. 120179): hoch, Verdopplung der Population dauert weniger als 15 Monate. (Fec=50).

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