Breeding
This species spawns between March and May. The eggs are scattered on clean gravel substrate. Both sexes develop unusual nuptial tubercles: males with one or two pointed tubercles per scale in the head region, and those on the body being aligned into several prominent ridges from head to tail. Females lack these sexual ornaments on the head, but still have the ridges, albeit less prominently than the males.
