Breve descrizione
Chiavi di identificazione | Morfologia | Morfometria
Spine dorsali (totale) : 0; Raggi dorsali molli (totale) : 0. With 58-65 trunk myomeres. The trunk is mottled in ammocoetes. The caudal fin is of spade-like shape and grey to black. The exolateral teeth are villiform, very small, weakly developed and frequently absent.
Body shape (shape guide): eel-like; Cross section: circular.
A non-parasitic species (Ref. 58030). Adults inhabit piedmont and montane zones in clear, well oxygenated brooks. Ammocoetes live in detritus-rich sands or clay sediments (Ref. 59043).
