Estimates based on models
Preferred temperature (Ref. 123201): 5.2 - 14.2, mean 10.8 °C (based on 401 cells).
Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804): PD50 = 0.5000 [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].
Bayesian length-weight: a=0.00977 (0.00483 - 0.01976), b=3.15 (2.98 - 3.32), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this species & Genus-body shape (Ref. 93245).
