Issue
Amphilius nigricaudatus is a valid species based on Ref. 81646 and comprises the populations of A. brevis s.l. outside the Congo basin (T. Musschoot, pers. comm.).
Environment: milieu / climate zone / depth range / distribution range
Ecologia
; Água doce demersal. Tropical; 3°N - 10°S
Africa: middle and upper Congo River basin in Democratic Republic of the Congo (Ref. 41580, 41590, 41591, 106245, 106290). Reports from Loeme, Kouilou-Niari and Ogowe represent the revalidated Amphilius nigricaudatus (Ref. 81646). Identification of Chiloango and (marine) lower Congo specimens (Ref. 41590) is unclear (see also Ref. 81646).

Estimates based on models
Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref.
82804): PD
50 = 0.5000 [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].
Bayesian length-weight: a=0.01000 (0.00244 - 0.04107), b=3.04 (2.81 - 3.27), in cm total length, based on all LWR estimates for this body shape (Ref.
93245).
Nível Trófico (Ref.
69278): 3.0 ±0.3 se; based on size and trophs of closest relatives
Resiliência (Ref.
120179): Médio, tempo mínimo de duplicação da população 1,4 - 4,4 anos (Assuming Fec < 10,000).
Fishing Vulnerability (Ref.
