Short description Morfologi | Morfometri

Taggstrålar i ryggfenan (totalt): 11; Mjukstrålar i ryggfenan (totalt): 30-34; Taggstrålar i analfenan 2; Mjukstrålar i analfenan: 5 - 6. Vertebral column extends into caudal fin. Black spot near the base of the pectorals. Dorsal posterior margin of operculum slightly toothed.

Occupies very diverse biotopes and carries out its biological cycle in freshwater as well as in brackish water (Ref. 27188). Juveniles feed on larvae of crustaceans (especially Macrobrachium), aquatic insects and copepods. Adults prey on fish. Captured during the rainy season (Ref. 35237).

Estimates based on models

Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804): PD₅₀ = 0.5078 [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].

Bayesian length-weight: a=0.00871 (0.00795 - 0.00954), b=3.09 (3.07 - 3.11), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this species (Ref. 93245).

Trofisk nivå (Ref. 69278): 4.4 ±0.5 se; based on diet studies.

Resiliens (Ref. 120179): Mellan, lägsta populationsfördubblingstid 1,4-4,4 år (K=0.11-0.22; tm=1-1.5).

Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153): High vulnerability (62 of 100).

Price category (Ref. 80766): Medium.

Nutrients (Ref. 124155): Calcium = 47.4 [22.8, 100.6] mg/100g; Iron = 0.868 [0.407, 1.560] mg/100g; Protein = 18.9 [17.6, 20.2] %; Omega3 = 0.344 [0.122, 0.954] g/100g; Selenium = 73.9 [29.6, 172.3] μg/100g; VitaminA = 85.8 [22.4, 311.3] μg/100g; Zinc = 1.18 [0.79, 1.79] mg/100g (wet weight);
