Estimates based on models
Preferred temperature (Ref.
123201): 17.4 - 20.8, mean 18 °C (based on 22 cells).
Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref.
82804): PD
50 = 0.7656 [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].
Bayesian length-weight: a=0.02512 (0.01037 - 0.06084), b=2.99 (2.78 - 3.20), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this (Sub)family-body shape (Ref.
