Oceania: known only from the Main Spring at Dalhousie Springs, South Australia.

Size / Weight / Age

Maturity: L m   ?   range ? - 4.4 cm
Max length : 9.0 cm SL male/unsexed; (Ref. 44894 )

Biology     Glossary (e.g. epibenthic)

Inhabits the bottom of warm, artesian, spring-fed pools and their outlet streams. Tolerates salinity to 10 p.p.t. and temperatures between 16° and 44°C, but usually remains in water between 30° and 38°C. Fish active at night. Stomach contents consist of hydrobiid snails, conchostracans, hard parts of unidentified insects or caddisfly larval cases (Ref. 27663 , 44894 ), microcrustaceans, fishes (hardyheads) and some plant material. The smallest member of the family; females become sexually mature at length of only 5.2 centimeters (Ref. 44894 ).

Estimates based on models

Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804 ):  PD 50 = 0.5005   [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 ). Trophic level (Ref. 69278 ):  3.4   ±0.53 se; based on food items. Resilience (Ref. 120179 ):  High, minimum population doubling time less than 15 months (Preliminary K or Fecundity.). Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153 ):  Low vulnerability (10 of 100).
