Comments: Inhabits pools and deeper flowing stretches, forming schools of similar sized individuals.  Juveniles sometimes in mixed schools with the Cape galaxias.  Feeds on aquatic and other insects from surface and midwater.  Breeds during summer, males congregating over bottom in flowing water.  Threatened by water extraction, agricultural pollution and introduced fishes (Ref. 7248).
