Descripción breve
Claves de identificación | Morfología | Morfometría
Phenacobius uranops resembles the riffle minnow, P. catostomus, but can be distinguished by having more elongated body, longer snout, more elliptical eye, 52-61 scales on lateral line, and 13-16 scales around caudal peduncle (Ref. 86798).
Body shape (shape guide): elongated.
Adults inhabit gravel and rubble runs and riffles of clear, fast creeks and small to medium rivers (Ref. 5723, 10294). They feed on dipteran and caddis larvae (Ref. 10294).
