Etymology: Heteroclinus: Greek, heteros = other + Greek, klinein, kline = sloping and bed, due to the four apophyses of sphenoid bone (Ref. 45335).
Eponymy: Thomas Whitelegge (1850–1927) was an English naturalist who emigrated (1883) to Sydney, Australia, where he joined the Linnean Society of New South Wales. [...] (Ref. 128868), visit book page.

Estimates based on models
Preferred temperature (Ref. 123201): 16.5 - 27.6, mean 25.6 °C (based on 446 cells).
Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804): PD50 = 0.5000 [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].
Bayesian length-weight: a=0.00513 (0.00223 - 0.01182), b=3.06 (2.86 - 3.26), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this (Sub)family-body shape (Ref. 93245).
Trophic level (Ref. 69278): 3.5 ±0.5 se; based on size and trophs of closest relatives
Resilience (Ref. 120179): Medium, minimum population doubling time 1.4 - 4.4 years (Fec assumed to be < 10,000).
Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153): Low vulnerability (10 of 100).
