Comments: Occurs in small to larger streams and rivers with standing water to moderate current (Ref. 57141).  Found mainly in pools (Ref. 57141). Feeds in the water column and in the upper layers on fallen terrestrial insects but it is otherwise omnivorous (Ref. 57141).  Spawns in shallow areas with gravel bottom.  Some populations are under threat due to water abstraction in dry season (Ref. 59043).
