Short description
Morfologia | Morfometria
Spine dorsali (totale): 7; Raggi dorsali molli (totale): 7-9; Spine anali 1; Raggi anali molli: 7 - 8; Vertebre: 26. This species is distinguished from its congeners by the following characters: head depressed, its maximum depth 65.5-71.6% of its maximum width; the body and caudal peduncle elongate, their depths 13.8-14.5% SL, at anal fin origin and 11.4-12.2% SL, respectively; longitudinal scales 40-43; vertebrae 10 + 16 = 26; D1 VI, low in males, not extending posteriorly to origin of D2 when adpressed; fifth pelvic-fin segmented ray usually divided into 5 branches at its first (most proximal) segmenting point; naked pectoral-fin base and prepelvic area; belly with small cycloid scales except forthe narrow area around ventral midline; cheek with sensory-papillae rows arranged longitudinally, no transverse rows. Colouration: pectoral fin base with a distinct dull orange oval spot; temporal region with 2 orange stripes, reaching posteriorly to, or around, a vertical through origin of second dorsal fin; caudal fin of males with 4 vertical rows of bright orange dots, in females, a pair of vertically-arranged, rounded or rectangular black blotches at the base when alive or freshly collected (Ref. 123096).
Occurs in the upper reaches of swift freshwater streams in montane areas of Ryukyu Is., Japan. It appears to be amphidromous, judging from small-sized eggs laid by the females at the spawning grounds in Urauchi-gawa River, Iriomote-jima I. (Ref. 123096).

50 = No PD50 data [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].
Bayesian length-weight: a=0.00724 (0.00338 - 0.01553), b=3.05 (2.87 - 3.23), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this (Sub)family-body shape (Ref.
93245).
Trophic level (Ref.
69278): 3.3 ±0.4 se; based on size and trophs of closest relatives
Resilienza (Ref.
120179): Alto, tempo minimo di raddoppiamento della popolazione meno di 15 mesi (Preliminary K or Fecundity.).
Fishing Vulnerability (Ref.
