Relatively deep body; lacks mid-lateral and abdominal stripes; lacks black spot at dorsal-fin origin; teeth on roof of mouth in 4 separate patches (2 vomerine and 3 palatine patches); maxillary barbel reaches tip of pectoral fin (Ref. 12693).

Facultative air-breathing (Ref. 126274); Occurs in rivers, lakes and reservoirs (Ref. 43281). Found in rapids (Ref. 37771). Forms large schools. Moves into tributary streams and flooded forests along with many species of cyprinids and other species of visually oriented catfishes such as P. pleurotaenia when water transparency decreases. Feeds on mollusks and chironomid insects (Ref. 12975), small fish and prawns (Ref. 56749). Marketed fresh (Ref. 12693).

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=0.00479 (0.00297 - 0.00772), b=2.96 (2.82 - 3.10), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this species & (Sub)family-body (Ref. 93245).

Nivel trófico (Ref. 69278): 3.2 ±0.40 se; based on food items.

Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153): Low to moderate vulnerability (27 of 100).

Price category (Ref. 80766): Unknown.

Nutrients (Ref. 124155): Calcium = 28.9 [13.5, 101.7] mg/100g; Iron = 0.559 [0.203, 1.754] mg/100g; Protein = 15 [13, 17] %; Omega3 = 0.308 [0.122, 0.784] g/100g; Selenium = 82.6 [31.6, 207.6] μg/100g; VitaminA = 77 [16, 330] μg/100g; Zinc = 3.44 [1.24, 6.60] mg/100g (wet weight);
