Descripción breve
Claves de identificación | Morfología | Morfometría
Phenacobius mirabilis is distinguished by having the following characters: bicolored body, olive-brown above, silver white below; large fleshy lips; caudal fin base with intense black spot following thin dark stripe along side of body; 42-51 scales on lateral line; 15-17 scales around caudal peduncle; thin dark stripe along black; darkly outlined scales on black and upper side (Ref. 86798)
Body shape (shape guide): elongated.
Adults inhabit gravel and rubble riffles and runs of clear to turbid creeks and small to medium, sometimes large rivers (Ref. 5723, 10294). They feed on insect larvae (Ref. 79012).
