Short description
Chiavi di identificazione | Morfologia | Morfometria
Spine dorsali (totale) : 1; Raggi dorsali molli (totale) : 6; Raggi anali molli: 14 - 15. Shallow midlateral plates covering less than or equal to 1/4 body depth. Anterior nuchal plate usually of moderate width (longer than wide) permitting weak to firm suture between supraoccipital and middle nuchal plate. Also differs from all species of Leptodoras except L. copei by possessing a distal tip of lower labial extension extending beyond that of upper labial extension (Ref. 56896).

Estimates based on models
Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref.
82804): PD
50 = 0.5002 [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].
Bayesian length-weight: a=0.00933 (0.00437 - 0.01992), b=3.03 (2.85 - 3.21), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this (Sub)family-body shape (Ref.
93245).
Trophic level (Ref.
69278): 2.8 ±0.4 se; based on size and trophs of closest relatives
Resilienza (Ref.
120179): Alto, tempo minimo di raddoppiamento della popolazione meno di 15 mesi (Preliminary K or Fecundity.).
Fishing Vulnerability (Ref.
59153): Low vulnerability (13 of 100).
