Short description
Chiavi di identificazione | Morfologia | Morfometria
Blunt and truncate snout; last simple dorsal ray denticulated behind; adipose eyelid (Ref. 43281).
Found mainly in rivers and enters flooded fields (Ref. 12975). Juveniles occur in October in the lower Mekong basin (Ref. 12975). Feeds on periphyton; other minor food items include phytoplankton, zooplankton and benthic algae (Ref. 10616). Small individuals are used for prahoc, larger ones are marketed fresh (Ref. 12693).
