Morphometrics
Vertebrae
: 38 - 39. Body dark brown, covered with minute papillae. Some or all barbels distally branched one or more times, retaining a constant width along its length. Oval premaxilla shorter than maxilla. Teeth arranged in 2 rows. Pectoral fin rounded. Dorsal fin with 3-4 procurrent and 6-7 principal rays. Anal fin with 3 procurrent and 8-9 principal rays. Caudal fin truncate with 9-12 dorsal procurrent, 13 principal and 10-11 ventral procurrent rays (Ref.
45128
).
Collected from a pre-andean stream of clear water, with shallow, sandy bottom, and with vegetation along margins, at an elevation of about 3,680 m above sea level. Specimens were hiding in the sand. Stomach contents include mainly chironomid larvae (Diptera) and amphipod remains and sand (Ref.
45128
),

= 0.5000 [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].
Bayesian length-weight: a=0.00851 (0.00355 - 0.02043), b=2.93 (2.74 - 3.12), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this Genus-body shape (Ref.

).
Trophic level (Ref.

): 3.2 ±0.46 se; based on food items.
Resilience (Ref.

): Low, minimum population doubling time 4.5 - 14 years (Assuming Fec < 100).
Fishing Vulnerability (Ref.
