Ecología
; agua dulce; salobre demersal; potamodromo (Ref. 131118); rango de profundidad 1 - 2 m (Ref. 109751). Temperate; 10°C - 20°C (Ref. 2059)
Asia: Former USSR: Amu Darya River from the Pyandzh to the mouths and lower tributaries. Sometimes in the brackish water of Taldyk Bay, the delta of the Amu Darya in the Aral Sea. Considered close to extinction (Ref. 6866). Registered in the 1984 USSR Red Book; 1985 Turkmen SSR Red Data Book; 1996 IUCN Red List (Ref. 35930).
Longitud en la primera madurez / Tamaño / Peso / Edad
Madurez: Lm 45.0  range ? - ? cm
Max length : 75.0 cm TL macho / no sexado; (Ref. 593); peso máximo publicado: 2.0 kg (Ref. 593); edad máxima reportada: 12 años (Ref. 35919)
Its natural habitat and population have declined due to the breakage of the hydrological regime of the Amu Dariya River. Usual weight not more than 600-700 grams. Females with mature hard roe, very rare. Apparently sensitive to oxygen content in the water, changes in its chemical content, and to pollution. Fishing is prohibited (Ref. 35930). Spawns at 16° C (Ref. 719).
