“Trachidermus fasciatus”的意思、由来-开放百科全书

This species is about {{convert|20|cm|in|0|abbr=on}} long and weighs up to 350 grams.^[2] It has a large, spineless head with a wide mouth and small eyes near the tip of the snout. The upper jaw is slightly projecting. The dorsal fin has 8 spines and 19 to 20 soft rays and the anal fin has no spines but 17 to 18 soft rays.^[1] This fish lacks scales but its body surface is textured with "knobbles".^[1] The gill opening is large^[1] and each gill has two orange stripes.^[2]

This fish lives in rivers, estuaries, and coastal ocean waters. It is catadromous; adults spawn on mudflats at the river mouths, and after hatching, the juveniles swim upstream to freshwater river habitat.^[3]

The female often lays eggs in empty bivalve shells. Nests have been noted in the shells of the oyster Crassostrea rivularis and the clam Atrina pectinata. It will also use other readily available structures for nesting, such as concrete blocks, lengths of bamboo, or glass bottles. The male often guards the nest.^[4] The eggs are reddish-yellow^[5] to "tangerine"^[2] in color, about 2 millimeters in width, and sticky in texture, adhering to the shell or other nest material.^[2] The larval fish is about 7 millimeters long at hatching.^[5]

This species is a bottom-dwelling fish and is a predator. The adult feeds on small fish and shrimps.^[2] The juveniles feed on zooplankton, such as rotifers.^[2] In the Ariake Sea of Japan the juveniles show a clear preference for the calanoid copepod species Sinocalanus sinensis.^[3] Juveniles have been reared in the laboratory on diets of midge larvae, water fleas, and the brine shrimp Artemia salina.^[5]

The habitat of the fish is degraded in some areas, particularly the river mouths of coastal China. Pollution from rapid urban development, overfishing, and the construction of dams and dikes threaten the species in this region. Changes in the hydrology of the area, mainly from dams, are most concerning because they prevent the migration of the fish in the river systems.^[2]
