Breve descrizione
Chiavi di identificazione | Morfologia | Morfometria
Raggi dorsali molli (totale) : 8 - 11; Raggi anali molli: 9 - 11; Vertebre: 25 - 27. In breeding males dorsal fin dusky to black, not yellow or orange; band on caudal fin narrow (narrower that eye-diameter) and often diffuse or absent; first dorsal fin ray thickened and spikelike; ocellus usually well developed in dorsal fin of females, no anal fin ocellus; breast fully scaled; modally 10 dorsal and anal fin rays; 7 pelvic fin rays, 25-28 (mode 26) scales in lateral line and modally 26 vertebrae (Ref. 43452).
Adults occur in springs, ciénegas, shorelines and cutoff channels of rivers and creeks, even colonizing ephemeral canals and ditches along roadsides (Ref. 43452). Distinct pairing during breeding. (Ref. 205). Demersal eggs with adhesive threads (Ref. 205). Migratory behaviour is undetermined (Ref. 126106).
